[@Ofmyownvolition]

Great vid. Third gen is really where it’s at 💪🏽. Such a solid platform to start any kind of build on. One of the last great american pickups.

[@_D.I.G_]

i just bought my first 3rd gen, its an 04 5.7L 2500 with only 87k miles on it. Im wondering if i should lower it. its sitting a bit too high for my wife and dog to get in. maybe that's a good thing?

[@Ofmyownvolition]

@@_D.I.G_ I lowered mine with the hopes of getting a couple more mpg’s. 2.5 in the front, 3 inch drop springs in the back.

Great video man would you be doing a video on how to lower the front? Trying to lower my friends truck.

Yessir soon, I already lowered it more by cutting the springs but soon imma get some spindles and make a video on them 👌 thanks for watching homie 💪

[@MattGiff-fy4ls]

That’s one great looking truck. Nice video man. Question tho, is the front all stock? And what about the rear ? Is everything stock ? Except the 2 inch drop shackle ? Please let me know bro I would like to get my truck the height your is at.

[@madram1727]

It was already on a 4/6 so the shackles just dropped the rear a little bit

Hi what are your front and rear bumpers called

[@clayonallen9674]

Back is roll pan

[@noelelenes9090]

Made it look easy bro hopefully it’s easy when I get mine. Mine is stock but I’m trying to level it out with the front. I got the same exact shackle. Do you think it’ll level?

[@madram1727]

I think it’ll sit pretty damn close to level if it’s stock height up front bro, if not try shackles and hangers and I bet it would

[@noelelenes9090]

MadRam17 thanks for the feedback bro. What are hangers exactly though?
