another thing too, when i had the shocks out it seemed like my brake lines limited how far i could drop the axle. i definitely didnt want to stretch or snap those!!

 

I like it Time for some bigger tires now! Any idea what size your gonna run? Also did you put new shocks in?

 

Matt, I am going to keep my original wheels and tires on it.. sounds like my wife gave me the OK in a year or so to upgrade to a newer truck.. so ill probably just leave it like this ...for now! also i am running the stock shocks.. i do hear a clunking noise comming from the front left.. im guessing that the shock is at the very end of its limit thats what is making the noise.. gonna put another rubber spacer on top of the shock just under the 3 bolt shock bracket hopefuly that solves my lil issue

ALSO i did get a front end alignment, the guys at the alignment shop said it was towed out quite a bit.

 

Looks good the way it is! No need to put more money into it if your gettin a new truck soon... 2.5 inches is pushin it for stock shocks, so that clunk may be your shock maxed out. Or it could be any one of the numerous front end problems Dodge is know for

 

Any before pics? I gotta do mine too...

 

Did you do the drop sway bar brackets? Has anyone. Do you think they make a difference. So rooster other than your clunk noise, how is the ride in the truck?

 

Yes i did use the sway bar drop brackets no way the sway bars would have hooked back into the frame. the ride is a tick harder than i remember. it feels different, maybe its just me but i can tell driving it that the front sits up higher..

 

Good deal Looks nice
