Truck looks great you should ptm the door handles and maybe do the mirrors or do them in black. Also painting the bumpers would make it look really good. That is a sick truck you got now though looks great.

How far of a drop is that on the front? A 2" spring and 1" on the shock?

Now that you have had the drop for a while what are your thought on

1 Tire rubbing issues

2 have You hit anything with the lower control arm

3 Ride quality what shocks did you go with for your package deal

4 Do you tow anything with your truck and if so any issues with the DJM clmap design (Have you ever had to adjust it and re tourqe it since you have installed the flip kit)

5 if you are towing are you using helper bags or not. If not are you bottoming out on the frame.

6 Did you have to C notch the frame

The reason for all the questions is that I like the look you have going on there and I may go with DJM instead if Bell Tach

Thanks in advance for your time
