Hard for me not to as well. Too many bills. Gotta rebuild my front end and get tires before I can go any lower.

Thanks Dennis, I tried texting you multiple times, but can only get ahold of you on Facebook messenger. When you come to meet the day before, for your " merchandise ". You can check it out.
I was given most of mine for my ck375s. I just had to buy new helpers because I wanted them. But I know a ton of people who sell drop parts day in and day out.

Might be my old number on fb. Lol. Oh I plan on it. Lol. Wish I could find parts here. Would love to piece it together on the cheap.
When James built his old blue cc i bought he put air management on it.. Best way to go.. I've had trucks without it and its a pita.. The air never stays in the bag so if you don't have a comp.. You'll be running no air or going to put air in 'em all the time

Not to burst your bubble, but 2/3 will get you the same stance as stock if that makes sense. Your bring down the truck 3" in rear to level it out, then going to add 2" front drop and have the same rake as stock.
I am 4/7 and I believe its perfect. Honestly I maybe bottomed out once since I've been lowered.
Drop consists of:
Front: 2" Belltech Adjustable Struts/2" Belltech Spindles/Belltech Camber Kit
Rear: DJM Flip Kit, Belltech Street Performance Shocks/Mcgaughys Helpers
There are many knowledgeable members on here who can help you, and the blue crew cab you posted at 2/4 drop is a member here I Believe. I have no issues whatsoever on my drop, and that pleases the wife ( smart move IMO ) and myself.
4/7 on 285/40/22
and now at 4/7 on 295/35/24
dam nice truck. that's how i'm going to do mine..4/7 kit only thing i been reading the some people have lowered a 4x4 and some other the you need to eliminate 4x4 still learning
What shocks are most of you running?
When I first dropped mine a few years ago i bought my kit slightly used and ran the Monroe air shocks with it until that started riding pretty rough. Then I went to some Belltech SP's as that's what everyone was recommending, shocks rode great at first but slowly wore out and now for the last year or longer have been blown and I really need to address it and get new shocks.
Is everyone still using the SP's? Or is there a better option some of you recommend, I'm open to suggestions before just pulling the trigger on the Belltechs.

Same here. Well truck came with them but they don't ride rough. Who knows how many miles they have.

Appreciate the input fellas. I was super happy with mine until they started going out, if I had to guess I only got 15,000 good miles out of them before they started wearing out bad, been completely shot awhile now.
Seems like most people run them and like them because of price and availability. As mentioned when new I liked them as well, just making sure there's not a better route (while staying semi affordable) to go before pulling the trigger:
My truck still barely has 15k on it and I dropped it a year ago. :/ got that race car DD now.

Any of you guys ever run a 285/45/22 tire on a 4/7 drop? Will there be any rubbing?

Ordered myself some more so we'll see. Ones on there now are about the same as having no shocks so I'm sure they'll be just fine.
Word, pretty sure that's the size he was running.
I'll have to do some digging on his IG
Edit: he had a 40 series tire

Well the guy I'm trying to trade with has brand new 45 series tires. Still with the nipples. If I get them, I'll run them and see if anyone would trade tires lol doubt it but it's worth a shot

You might clear them still, you would just have to try. You could always get the 40 series later and flip the 45s after.
I saw a pic of the same drop and tire size and it looked like a good fit with the big wheelwells
