2014+ Lowering / Drop Kits

[Darth_Vader]

You should've stuck with stock because those are the ugliest wheels I've seen. Oh and nice plasti dip job. That looks like factory paint........can't polish a turd my friend.

You obviously don't know anything about anything, nothing plasti-dipped on his truck. Move along, child.

Pulled off the McGaughy's flip kit and installed the DJM kit last night, quality is night and day. After about 30 minutes I was able to get the pinion angle to within a tenth of the trans angle, all vibration gone, truck rides great, a huge upgrade. The whole back end just feels tighter with the DJM brackets than the McGaughy's did, was getting a lot of rear end judder that wasn't driveline related, all of that is gone now.

Final verdict, McGaughy's front spindles, DJM rear flip, a winning combination.

Can't fix stupid. Looks like he's just burning his bridge on the way out, with him selling his truck.

OEM, aftermarket, doesn't matter because they are ugly. Not a keyboard warrior, I just speak the truth. Open forum means all opinions are welcome. Don't post pictures of you can't take the criticism.

I think you did right on the 3-5 IMO... 4-7 looks good but not for a daily around here.

I agree, it does look good but not practical, and while the 5 still isn't for the feint of heart give all the brackets I just cut off a truck with less than 500 miles on it, you basically have to run a C-notch on a drop more than 5 to keep it off the stops, at 7 you're riding on the stops. I'm happy with how it turned out and the ride is as good, if not better than stock. And I appreciate the help with all my questions, RT.

Nice rides!!!

Been trying to work out my drop for the last few weeks and not sure what route to go.

Trying to determine if I should get McGaughy's front drop spindles or DJM's lower control arms for a 2" drop??

 

I know I will be ordering DJM's rear flip kit.

 

Right now I am lowered on Belltech's front drop shocks with the rear shackles and blocks removed for a 1/3" drop, but I am not liking it. Seems like the rear is really stiff and not sturdy. I get a wobble when cruising down the highway at 70-80. Hope the flip kit fixes this and whatever I get on the front makes this drop feel better.

Wobble is probably from the shackles, they change your pinion angle. I would do the spindles up front.

Always replace your u-bolts after one use!

 

 

Snapped at 95 pounds of torque.

Thought it was 70 pounds first pass then 90 second pass?

 

Oh well I need to replace them regardless lol
