i'm thinking some 22's or 24's, probably 22's, and drop to make it look good. but at the same time i don't wanna go too low to where i can't tow my boat. then again, i've been debating a roll pan with a hide a hitch, which i'm thinking is a higher receiver hitch since it's not below the bumper anymore, and behind instead. so maybe i'll pick up a couple, 3 inches on my hitch height, which would let me drop accordingly in the back and remain at the same height. but then i gotta contemplate losing the spare to do it... decisions decisions. i'm probably just overanalyzing like i do about everything, to the point that i often lose interest before i follow through. so often it's not a matter of lack of means, just more a lack of decision making on my part. oh well. we'll see what happens.

I'm dropped with factory hitch. I use a 2" drop hitch but flip it upside down, 2" up. I've pulled an 8000lb trailer a couple times no problem. Never used my spare tire in the 3 years I've had it so I got rid of it. I also have one of those 250psi compressors that you plug into your cigarette lighter.
I wouldnt heitate to pull a 4000lb boat with a hidden hitch and some helper bags. Buy a little compressor, ditch the spare and dont look back

i guess my boat hitch is just kinda high, cause i use like a 5 in drop hitch i think, flipped. and it settles out kinda level when it's on my truck. as far as i know i'm factory height, doesn't look lowered. maybe my rear springs are tired? but that's the only thing i really pull with it, the only heavy thing, anyway. (22' bay boat). it might just be tongue heavy, no telling. haven't pulled much stuff in general, so i dunno. anyhow, thanks for the info. didn't mean to threadjack it. branndon

low97, follow the rules!!!! Stats man!
Lol just joking. What are the details on the hoe though. 2wd I'm assuming? Tire and rim size?

i havnt notched yet
it rides ok a little bouncy take the bump stop bracket out when u do the flip kit
the bracket has a bolt on one side and a rivet on the other just take the bolt out and spin the bracket to the back and it will be out of the way
unless u want to drill or cut out that rivet
good luck

i have already cut out the bumpstop bracket, i just cut into the head of the rivet a little and then hit it with the air chisel, then grinded it down flat, and punched it out. thanks for the info
