The ride is great. Didn't have to do the c notch. When friends get in to go for a ride, they can't believe that the truck is lowered because how smooth the ride is. I do get a little bit of rub in the front inner plastic fender on tight turns, and a little axle bottom out in the rear when I hit a huge bump.

Took the steps off and it just doesn't look right. I may try to get some ground effects for the sides to match the front valance
