Re: My McGaughy's stuff is here!

So, how low are you planning to go?

He's got a 3/5 kit.

Isn't there usually some adjustment in the kits, though? I remember the guy at a local shop telling me that when I was thinking about a kit for my Sierra..

He could certainly play with the blocks or shackles in the rear but unless he plans to stick spacers in his springs or on the mounts, I'm not sure how much he can do up front.

Alright. Maybe the guy I talked to was full of it.

From talking to the local guys, I'm told the front will drop about 3.5 inches. Rear is 5 inches, but I can go down another inch if needed with my other shackles. I want some rake and NO CALI LEAN. I would go lower but my wheels are pretty deep dished and the offset will make the fronts rub pretty hard with my 275-55-20s. I want to keep my wheels, but I'm open to a different sized tire if needed.

I will know soon.

Cool. Good luck!

I think a little less sidewall will look better once lowered. The tradeoff is obviously a little ride quality, but in the looks department...

I'll probably go to a 285-50

That's what J-Rod and I both run.

T and I have been waiting a decade for this.

Better hope he didn't find that box and is playing you.

NAH. I'm excited to finally do it.
