No not saying that just want to see the swaybar angle. There's a reason I recommened the rear swayear links just wanted to see yours after lowering to see how far it is.
Whenever I set up a kit I like to set it up complete that's all. And theres been many times herr people bought kits and ended up saying resr felt funny and did links and bumpstops and they were a lot happier with ride.
Your happy with the kit great thats all that matters but for someone that is into kits on these trucks I like to gather any info I can. Sorry for all the question
Btw with almost 4 inches in rear won't be much travel if it feels bumpy will need to do free travel mod. Anyone here can agree on that

Sent a message to the shop. He advised me that it does not bottom out. And the suspension actually has more cushion to it than previously. Apparently it was messed up before.. hes saying its night and day now.
Obviously ill confirm in about a week when i pick it up.

Reading thru the post it does sound like you popped a gasket but coming from someone who has no dog in this fight... If your truck hasnt had the free travel mod done to it yet and your sitting at a 4" drop your ass end is going to bottom out and ride like total crap. i highly recommend you take tonys advice as the dude knows his stuff and according to your own admission you know very little about drop kits and such

1st part let me say... ur right and i didnt edit my skits so that the appology makes sense. I owed him that. I WAS WRONG.
as for the truck... i have yet to drive it however according to the shop owner the truck rides way better than it did when i dropped it off. He tells me that something had been modified previously and the truck really had no suspension travel. Idk what he means but he is telling me there is no bottoming out so ik assuming that must mean he did the mod. A few more things need to be done... then alignment... then i will have my truck back and will be able to test it for bottoming out. If it does i will def look into the mod. As of now Im not sure what the mod consists of, but i dont want it to bottom out either.
