Hey guys curious as to how much you lowered your trucks. I am going to lower mine 2" her in a few weeks. I do have shocks, actually I have 2 complete sets of drop shocks. I got double billed on ebay by winning 2 auctions, and rather than try to return them and pay postage, i figured i would try to dump them to someone on the forums if your interested??
they are toxic drop shocks for a 2/3 drop. let me know, $125 shipped.

Your truck is very nice with lots of potential. I would suggest that you, slow down, think, plan, and think a little more when modding your truck. It will save you money in the long run..
Example
Based on this picture, Lowering the front is not going to help achieve the look I think you are going for unless the picture is off.
If you park on a flat surface and your truck sits level, then you lower the front to achieve 2-3" difference

No problem... here is what you want and how to do it

1. park your truck on a flat level place, like a parking lot, or street if flat with no hills.
2. Take a picture of it with you standing back 20ft

Your goal is the front to be a little lower than the back. If the back is higher now, you dont want to lower the front because it will make the back look higher
