Okay everyone..

The drop kit consists of parts for the FRONT ONLY (To lower the back you just go get some blocks from a local shop).

This kit is 1.75" in the front (Effectively making a hair lower then 1.5" of drop)
****THIS KIT DOES CREATE NEGATIVE CAMBER*****
I was able to get within half a degree of factory spec of my alignment.
Most people are able to get their alignment within factory specs.
Please be advised, the alignment depends on your vehicle. If you have any other aftermarket items, changed suspension, etc, I do not know where your camber will end up.

This kit can also be purchased as a 1" drop if you do not want to go so low. I assume factory specs will be no problem with a 1" drop.


It is a CNC Machined spacer kit.
Here is a quick clip of the CNC machine cutting one of the spacers for validity :

The bolts are grade 10 (strong as hell)


Kit cost $175.00 Shipped anywhere in the continental U.S. (additional charges for HI)


Here is what the kit consists of (Thank you Moorcheez for the pic):

Installation is quite simple.
The way this kit works, is the rolled steel pictured above acts as a spacer between the lower control arm and the spindle, effectively raising the spindle (lowering the truck).

Here is the close up of the spacer installed (disregard the 3 washers, this was a test fit)

For the price that you pay, this kit is a must have. Once you go with the XRC, you'll never look at other X's the same

I've been very happy with the 2" XRC. Still can't find a shop to get the alignment within specs, but the last shop got it close. I'm not sure what the problem is, but the truck handles great with negative camber.

I got my A arms moved up about an inch and now my alignment was done with no problems...

can you make them in custom sizes?

ill probably go with your 1in kit once I get my new wheels, but im going with oversized tires, and the 1.75 will probably be too much.

My problem was the alignment... I had tried a few places and some wouldn't even touch it.. The closest I could get it was -3 on the right and -2.5 on the left... After I got my A-arms moved up about an inch and a half I actually ended up with slight posotive camber and my alignment shop got me into specs... Everything is workin great now...
