And I know. It looks kinda funny right now. But it'll get down there...

Ha! Yeah, amazingly enough, no rubbing when turned!
I've got my lowering kit. Keys, shackles/hangers and drop shocks- All Belltech. But I think I may wait a little longer and try to get a flip kit, so I don't have to mess with the hangers...

Looks good but as you said needs a drop now. I agree with removing the valance. Plus it looks like it'***** a few things and sitting kind of angled because of it.

Looking good! Like the wheels and tires on your truck...Lowering kit is a must now! Make it look 10x's better. And x3 on removing the valance panel.

Yeah. Thanks guys. I've got the lowering kit, just need to put it on.
The kit I've got is a 3/4 kit. But I was kinda leaning toward a flip kit in the back. Not real sure yet... Not sure if I wanna go that low on it. But I think it will probably look better the lower I go...

LOL you were right, it does look funny. It'll look awesome though once you drop it.

Here's the first wave of lowering. I know it doesn't look like much, but this is only the first wave. Decranked stock keys and lowering shackles.
I've got Belltech lowering keys, just have to wait for my torsion unload tool to get here this week.

I notice a big difference already. It will look better once you finish it of course but it's much improved already for sure.

I've got these to put on there as well if I want to, but have to do a little work on the hood and get them repainted first.

And everyone keeps saying that you really don't get much drop out of the hangers, so I may end up going with a flip kit instead of the route I am going...

i love the hood but not a huge fan of the gmc front truck is sick tho

Yeah, Haven't decided on what all I want to use or not. Got a :smoke2: deal on both so couldn't pass it up. Figured I would get them both repainted to match and throw them on and see what it looks like. May be a while though. Definitely gonna get the suspension lined out first.
