Mine rides pretty good... But I have no idea what it was like stock, lol. Factory size tires don't look TOO dinky, and that's as high as I'm going... I'm pretty sure that mine just has the t-bar cranked.

If I can't find a wheel/tire combo I like in 34s.. I'm going to get 33s, lower the front, and get the sulastic shackles with the 1.5" drop

That is the kit I had on the '09, you still end up with cranked bars :(

Oh, I got used to it. I had that way for over 5 years with 34s on 20s

It is just nice not to have it that way.

I think I am going to order my McGaughey's lowering shackles for the back. I am considering dropping the overload leafs out of the spring pack.

I probably should have ordered Ride Rite bags instead of the AirLift. The snazzy AirLift set I bought has the internal jounce bumpers, so you can run them empty. Now I fear if I do the 2" drop, it will drop it right on to those bumpers, and make it ride like shit.

Check out this shit


Smoother ride, and they have a 1.5" drop option...


Sure it adds another bushing to change once and awhile, but worth it, unless you're running loaded all the time...

I have seen those. I am intrigued, but adding a shackle to a shackle to get the lowering makes my infomercial/we sell on cable TV alarm go off :D2
