roberbober Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Gents, I was looking at lowering my 2004 AWD. I use it as a daily driver so looking for how it performs in the long run. If you have run into any issues with having the drop over a long period of time. It looks great but want to know if it impacts the trucks drive ability. Thanks, Bobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thing1 Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 I think it will be fine on AWD if you go somewhere around a 2/4 drop. My single cab is lowered around 5/7 and I daily it but it's 2wd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 The only issue with a drop kit is choosing the right weight shocks. some ride really stiff in the rear. so I would call the vendor you are going to use and figure out what shocks you want in the back. I have to change my rears as the truck is to stiff back there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberbober Posted August 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Thanks for the reply's. I have had my truck for about 12 years now and it is bone stock.. lol... But I am going to put some love into her. The one thing about this truck is the body style has lasted the test of time and still looks great. But i am thinking new rims, and I have plans for a complete custom new stereo. I am on the fence about lowering it. I know a few places have some really nice kits. But one this is that the SS has been built pretty well and in 12 years and 130K miles I have no issue other than routine maintenance, change fluids and windshield wipers. But that's about it.
