The L lowered...

Ended up going with a nice setup this time around on the L... I went with the Western Chassis 4/6 Kit. I used A-arms/springs up front, but in the rear, I only used the flip kit and not the shackles. The 03 leafs are a tad bit higher so I was able to get away with a flip kit for about 5" of drop. Check it out...

I couldn't drive anything that low on a daily basis without scraping or bottoming out regularly. It's just not practical to be that low. It looks really good though.

That looks sweet and in my opinion i think it sits perfect on the stock rims, no 20's needed.

The L will ride just fine w/ C-Notches. Doestch Tech shocks are badass! Im thinking 22x10" Boyd Coddington Osiris Rims. Opinions?

As for the cobra.... H&R Super Sport springs w/o spring isolators. Cured my wheel hop problem, and rides just fine, just scrapes the exhaust on just about everything...
