      bagging is different because it still brings the angles on the cv's within relative reason when the truck is at a driving height with the bags filled. I kinda wanna static drop 6/8

      Looking at your pictures igowen, your truck sits alot higher than mine. I have factories back on and theres maybe a finger room between fneder and my tires.

    3. cmoney23

      cmoney23

      Did dropping the front to much put to much strain on the front cv? I raised my front a bit because of that. Us AWD guys cant go to low without that cv axle being in to bad of a position.

    4. Fors

      Fors

      No I went so low the cv axle wasnt long enough. Im atleast 4 minutes in the front, maybe more depending on how many inches taking the key out puts it too.

  13. I want a H1 so bad. Enough to get rid of the SS lol. Almost at least.

    1. 8hnpSS

      8hnpSS

  15. would there be any interest in buying my stock keys or spindles? kinda rusty so they need a good cleaning but are in good shape still.

      I'm never done wrenching on Nightmare lol. I need to get the front even lower. stance is bad on it still.

  18. torsion keys are in! found the simplest way to punch out the torsion bar.. spindles tomorrow!

    1. cmoney23

      cmoney23

      I dont see how your goin 4" in front with an awd. I did 3" and turned my keys down a bit so i was 3.5" in front and my cv's were not in a good position at all. So i had to crank up torsion keys. My 4x4 suspension shop said in 6 months i would be fixing shit if i kept it the way it was.

    2. ThatTallCanadian

      ThatTallCanadian

      I have spindles which helps keep it closer to stock alignment i'm pretty sure. you just did an LCA right?

    3. cmoney23

      cmoney23

      Yeah, lca only.

  19. neverending nightmare. I think my trucks new name is going to be Nightmare.
