The front end especially gets real upset and hammered bad over bumps. And its had alignment, tires are wearing good and even. But I never thought 2 inches of coil drop in the front would f*ck up the geometry this bad.

Others in the same boat?
thanks. mine rides great. i really think its better than stock because now i dont have near as much body roll. as far as bumps and stuff it feels pretty much just like stock. i did the lowering struts and kept the factory springs though. i had a 06' sierra with a 2/4 that had lowering springs and i used to get bad bump steer. dont have that problem with this setup. i really couldnt be happier with it. best riding lowered truck i have ever had and this is my 4th.

do you have any issues with bottoming out on our fine dallas roadways. i have the same truck and i want to lower it but worried about bottoming out from the loss of suspension travel.

Looks great, man. Ordered the same kit the other day. Glad to see another truck with that kit. I can't wait to sit like that. Now all I need are rims and tires.
