3-4 inches !!!! thats allot!!!!

Let me give you an example..rough estimate to bag truck to lay frame about 4.5-7k for quality parts and than to go only 3.5" lower for a body drop you will pay closer to 10k!!!! Check mine out the chassis alone cost 10k roller!! But def. worth every $$$ the payoff when these bagged toys are layd hard on the pavement is unbelievable. i remember when I was at this one goodguys show and i pulled up in front of a huge crowd and the truck was aired all the wap up locked and I go to park and I hit the slow dump (at the time they were custom made valves now the have them in production..I was sponsored by slam specialties) and I hit the switch and as Im going down everyone is glaring in amazment and it keeps going and going and some guy yells out when is it gonna stop! and I yell back when the rocker hits the pavement..**** when it finally landed it felt like a cloud floating to the ground and everyone came over to check out everything damn that was an awsome feeling i was grinnin from ear to ear!! Now that is worth the big $$$ !!! I say do it!!

Here is a pic I took layd at a business park!

I never called you a liar, I just didn't think your on 4's. No biggie.


Your best bet to get it to lay out on them is going to be to break out the sawzall and cut cut cut until it lays. Then reverse engineer it to make it drivable again.

JT321 please email me when you see this thanks...

Hey JT321 do you have any pics of the setup in the front and the back?? i have a good idea of how you did this install but i would like to re-ensure myself before i start on my 300... JT321 could you please email me when you see this thanks... I have an idea to build a setup that wont squeak and if it works i will produce this kit under my product line phattys.ca

Im goin to be working on a kit for the V6 guys out there to upgrade their brakes to the V8 version rotors but using 4 and 6 piston Wilwood calipers. The kit will include calipers and caliper brackets, aswell as pads and stainless steel brake lines. You will supply the rotors.

Thanks,
Deuce

Its pretty easy actually as it was explained to me from another friend of mine on juice...


In the rear end you remove the coil and shock, then you take the piece of metal that the cylinder fits through and cut it so it bolts into your upper shock mount. Then you weld a piece of tubing to this to suspend the cylinder against the ring at the bottom. The bottom of the clinder can attach with a heim joint or bushing like the oem shocks did.

Up front you pull the whole strut. Then you can make a clevis style shackle that would connect the cylinder to the lower control arm. The upper bolts in the same style as the rear.


If you are cutting to lay you need to clearence for the wheels as well as some suspension components.
