[Clifford]

So when are you going to lower it?

 

[Detective_Dan]

asshole lol

Looking good, make sure to get an alignment after the springs settle

How long do springs take to settle? I was gonna try to get an alignment tomorrow or monday

I thought the same thing haha, djm or bust!

I'd wait for a few hundred miles for them to settle and get the alignment. But if you have a hookup for alignments (cheap of free lol) get one now and one later on.

looks like the rear dropped 2" but the front got less than 1" drop..... i'm guessing the springs will settle down a bit shortly :dontknow:

Looks good with the same fender gap front and rear. Do your front tires have at camber with the drop?

Like slywhitty said get one after the install and one later on. I waited till about a thousand miles to get the final one.

They do but it's not much. Alignment will help

With him on this. Looks good. Just sayin, these trucks looks better lower.

 

[X-MOKED U]

looks awesome man

I have a question about this drop. If you order the kit with the blocks and springs do you need anything else? Will the stock shocks work with this setup? Also do u have any problems with the rear axel hitting anything when some weight is put in the back? I'm sorry for the newb questions.

 

[madtrucker]

It looks great. How does it handle?

 

[06 xrunner]

Looks good man I dropped mine a few weeks ago with the same drop

^^vandy the blocks and springs work with the stock shocks I have hit a couple times on the back bump stops not seeing a big dip in the road and that's with no weight so I'm thinking of getting the qa1 shocks for the rear which you can get from XII performance and hope that helps since my shocks have about 160,000 kms on them. You could also cut the bracket the bumpstops connect to and attach them right to the frame I believe

 

[Vandy01]

Thanks for answering my question. How much stiffer does the aq1 make it?
