well i got most of the carpet done its about 90% done just got to hook the system back up and install the center console. here is just some of the progress. i can honestly say that i will never do a carpet change again on this truck it was a pain in my ass

i also got the 3\5 lowering kit from norcal ss (Tony) i hope i can get to it soon

 

[07Burb]

That's lookin good!

nice work

 

[carcrz]

thanks for the compliments guys. i installed the rear djm lowering kit 5in tb coils and it went down one inch i was hoping for more, i need one more inch and i will be happy all suggestions on how i can accomplish this task will be greatly appreciated. i'm thinking about cutting a coil from the springs that should drop it about an inch (need input),,,,,,,,, will be doing the front on sunday am

 

[swtz71]

Trucks as always looking great!!
as far as one more inch, I wouldn't cut the coils. But recently I did read that you can cut the coils a bit, just flatten the end you cut...did you take the stock rubber pads off the coils when you put the new ones on? also shock extenders, do you have those?

i did take the rubber pads off and i got the djm hardware kit and new shocks so no extenders needed, so im hoping they will settle in time and go lower but i think thats just wishful thinking, or maybe when i drop the front it will help the back some i hope

 

[swtz71]

I wonder if the springs do settle a bit..Yea maybe when you do the front it will even out..

 

[carcrz]

well i got the front done today and i'm happy with it drop it down to 32.5 and thats just what i want it, all i need is an alignment now my wheels are all over the place.
here are some pics with no keys just for ***** and giggles i will get better pics on monday.
