She's almost done - Front end drop!

Well installed the 6" Wabfab Shackles and Downey 2" Leaf springs and the rear still sits lower than the front. Up front I have 1½" Balljoint Spacers. I'm thinking the previous owner must have cranked the T-Bar or somethin for the front to sit as high as she does now with only the BJ spacers.

The ride up front does feel kinda stiff, so I'm gonna crank back on the T-Bars and see if I can't drop the front 1". As of yet I have not played with the T-Bars at all.

From this April Last year:


To this - Today:

i would keep it just how you have it. looks good. it will be nice to have the extra clearance for those tires when they are flexing.

mine also "appeared" to be unlevel, but if you look at where the fenders are on the body. The front fenders are higher up on the body line (well at least i think so)

EDIT: You can see mine has the illusion taht it is sagging too

About 1 week after lift was installed (night i got my wheels and tires)

About 2 days ago

Maybe just add a Winch Bumper / Winch - that should fix it!
