Suspension/Truck Progress

Bone stock, 20" wheels, then shackles, then 2/4" McGaughy's drop. Xcal2 93 octane Troyer tune, Airaid, Magnaflow exhaust, Hellwig rear sway bar.

Next: to add Harley valance and 06' front bumper w/round fogs painted to match, as well as getting my power signal mirrors smoothed/painted, silver Mark LT handles.

Do you have any links to your pictures or gallery that show a side view before and after lowering. Where and how much for the McGaughy's kit. Im looking at the ground force 2/4 drop.

Here is the best I could do right now for a before and after side shot. The before has no lowering shackles or anything.

I called McGaughy's directly, which they got me straight on which kit I needed, then hooked me up with the closest dealer. So I called the dealer (in Houston) and they shipped it to me. By the time I paid tax (same state transaction) shipping (kit weighs over 100lbs.) and the price of the kit $499...my grand total came out to like $600. Rides like a dream though......

p.s. pronounced "Mc-Goi's"

ok, so you'll add the 06 bumper painted to match, I hope you finish off the rear bumper as well to match. Wouldn't look good if left chrome...

btw, good progress so far!
