Talking BIG thanks to VINNIE!

Buddy, thanks again for doing my drop yesterday, and getting rid of that damn clunk with the DL washers!

Settled in quite nice, but the drive is great, just what i wanted.. nice and firm, and tighter around corners.

Thanks again man.. and btw, i did manage to keep all the wheels on the truck, on the way home, LMAO!!

Make sure you check those nuts on the shackles cause vinnie did mine and two days later the back on my truck fell off the frame and about 80mph and I had to get the bed replaced. He payed for it but it was a nightmare. two people got put in the hospital from flying bedcover and tailgate. It was nasty

Glad to hear you like it.

We did a DJM 1 inch front spring drop.It dropped about 1/2 inch.
I have done two frpp 1 inch front drops and they both dropped an inch.

There is a difference between the 2 springs.The DJMs are a much more stout spring(they almost look stock-thicness and amount pf coils) where the FRPP/ground force was thinner coils and spaced farther apart.

The FRPP/Ground force dropped more but the DJMs will probaly give an overall better handle.
