you can install 2" lowering blocks in the rear. you will need to cut some of the bump stops in the rear to soften the ride.
after you do that, just crank down the torsion bars in front to even it out or give it a slight rake.....
:lol:

I have 3" blocks on the rear and the torsion bars cranked all the way down 8O and let me tell ya it is friggin low!!! :twisted: I am gonna take a few pics and let everyone see how low it is ! lol the frame is roughly 4" off the ground My pics on the site dont do it justice I actually had the air shocks pumped up so it is sitting a little higher than it should. Well after I do the V-8 swap I think I'm gonna bag her. Just my 2 pennies!
