I will try to get one tomorrow.... before my son installs 1/2" strut spacers on top of the struts to lift it back up a little.

It was fine all the way home from my brothers house yesterday with just me and my oldest son in the truck.... today with my whole family in the truck the front tires kept grabbing the fender lips and pulling them down and gouging tires.... so she's gotta go back up a little.

Rough Country claims a 2" drop from bolting the struts to the bottom of the control arm with a 1/4" spacer under the control arm.... I don't have the spacer and it is every bit of a 2" drop as is.

I dunno... maybe the lower strut bar that the bolts go through is thicker on the Ranchos.... didn't really pay much attention but I didn't think they were.

One thing I know for sure... I don't like the plastic knob for the adjustment on the Ranchos... every time I go to adjust them it feels like the plastic knob is going to break... and they are EXTREMELY hard to turn.... I even tried to turn them with pliers and it's still a nightmare.... doesn't matter that they are 9 way adjustable if you can't turn the knob

I'm waiting to see that Yukon lift a tire and take a whizz on the little guy. Sibling rivalry.
