Thanks

Nate

I want to drop my rear an additional 2" to make it a complete 4". But I'm not to swift of just doing the rear. I think the geometry will be all screwed up and the truck may get very loose in the rear. I'm going for the front hangers. At least both front and rear will be equally lowered.

I wouldn't go more than the 4" hole, Max 3" and get a Panhard Rod from Ruslow. Don't forget the wedges to get your pinion angle back in check.

I'm doing the hangers.
