??????????'s

OK so I am about to finish the 3/4 drop. Initially I only lowered the rear 2" but I did not like the stance. So what things should I look ou for when installing the hangers. Also I am going to be installing the "Silver Bullet " exhaust? Any concerns with that install on a lowered Bolt?

Thanks

Your in for some fun!

well its not that bad, just make sure you have an air hammer to get the rivets out and a drill in case you can't hammer them out. A grinder to grind the rivet heads off and thats about it. But before you out it all back together, set your shackles to the lowest possible holes (which would make your truck higer up), cause if not your trucks going to be lower in the back then the front. trust me, it will save some time.

Also, make sure you use the bell tech shims, and bumps stops. A C section might be a good idea too.

I'm thinking mixed drinked cause beer might get you a little angry and tempt you to break your truck when you have a hard time getting the rivets out, HEHEHEHEHEHE. Wine might be a thought too, with some smooth jazz muisc. HAHAHAHA

All of the above with the addition of a good set of gloves and earplugs. Earplugs make it much more bearable while using the air chisel. Trust ME on this one!!
