can you take some pics of the work, or does Tony have a "how to" thread somewhere?

I like the way ours rides, but it looks 4wd :(

wanting to lower it a bit, but not lose any ride comfort, the roads here are HORRIBLE.

front drop struts or spindles wont affect ride in front. Usually the higher mileage guys put hte belltech drop struts in and it rides better.

in rear the 5305 3-4 inch spring kit is by far the best riding next to the 5 inch plus djm trailblazer springs or belltech trailblazer springs.

Installed 2-3/4 drop PICS inside

Just got through cleaning her up!!! Installed the drop this AM. As I was finishing up the front and moving the tools to the back, FedEx showed up w/ the springs. Took me about 3 hrs to do this. I was by myself using hand tools and floor jacks. All 4 corners sit at 34 and 1/4"

Gonna go tomorrow AM for an alignment!!

Dude looks sick. I might have to order a 2/3 now and maybe you can show me how to do it? It would be worth the 1-2 hour drive haha.
