kaze_v8 Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Finally got to dropping her, big thanks to Tony from NorcalSS for the huge amount of advice and help he provided me, he was able to catch a few mistakes I made when piecing together my drop kit, and gave me a great deal on parts. The truck is an 04 AWD, with a 4/5 drop, I used DJM 3" A arms with DJM Lowering Keys in the front, and I used a Flip Kit with a DJM 1" lift shackle in the rear. Also have belltech street performance shocks all around. Still need a C-notch which I will be getting this weekend. Before: The day I first bought her. After: Let me know what yall think.

MID12sSSS Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Looks amazing dude! Might just be the lowest AWD on the site?? I know the 3/4 is very popular. Don't see to many flip kits being done. Looks really good! Nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaze_v8 Posted March 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Thanks boss! And down here ive seen some pretty low AWD trucks. Theres a gentleman locally who has a boosted single cab 4x4 with a 5/8 drop. Luckily my axles seem to be holding up good so far, well see once I start punching it.

rickyrick562 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Looks amazing bro. My only question is does the flip kit ride better than the shackle and hanger kit Tony sells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powell Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Looks really nice! Are those 22" reps or the stock 20" with smaller rubber? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And personally I feel its pretty smooth, should be much better once I get it c-notched, but then again ive never had hangers and shackles. Looks really nice! Are those 22" reps or the stock 20" with smaller rubber? They are 22" reps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
levilz Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Looks good man. I'd like to lose some altitude, but the terrain here isn't too lowrider friendly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afun Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Nice! Can you explain in the first pic...the all black rim and how you got the silver in the middle of the cap? Did you powdercoat the rim, and the paint the cap but not the chevy emblem center? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't know exactly as I bought the truck like that, but it looks like to me they just painted around the chrome piece, as in they tapped it up or something.

Afun Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 I was told the center cap can't be powder coated. Your truck looks awesome both ways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
