    Ardent Fab Custom Axle Flip, C-Notch, and Shock Relocation

    Good work there, bud! I definitely like this idea for shocks more than mine. But, do the shocks bottom out before the bump stops? I can tell you when I did my jeeps outboard shock relocation, it had a huge increase in handling AND ride quality. Even better when I got my new shocks and had...

    Is this a drop or stock spindle? And....

    Thanks but It WILL be clean when we’re done. We’re pulling the bed and cap to replace the mounts and burn in a reinforced notch and relocate the shock. While I’m there I’ll clean up the frame and all that jazz. Coupon codes? Where?

    Thanks bud, but I’m super rich. Haha no, I just need to get this done quick as I need tires for the truck and one of the rims is bent. So might as well do all this at once. Changing the 2/4 to 4/6 isn’t going feel good on the pocket book but I’m prepared. 200 bucks in new hangers isn’t going to...

    heys guys, Newb question here. Is this a drop or stock spindle on my truck? It’s lowered 2/4 and need to know because I’m changing it to a 4/6. It’s a 93 5.7. Also, anyone know if these hanger will fit? If not, do you know where I can get stick shackles and hangers! I need to put the Stock...

    How much was my truck lowered?

    Seems like 20’s are going to have to be the rim I end up putting on it: can’t find find matching tires for the 18’s I want. Those were 255/50r18 and 295/45r18 in torq-thrust. I’ll head out today to a few tire shops to see if they have any 20 inch wheels with our bolt pattern that I can try on...

    How much was my truck lowered?

    I hear ya. No one knows their back spacing! Backspacing and tire size. Need to have both. I’m only gonna run 18’s. I’m gonna use this to tow and haul stuff. That said I’d like to run the widest tire/rim combo I can. The answer isn’t easy to find even though there are tons of these trucks...

    How much was my truck lowered?

    Just realized there was a second page to this tread. The backspacing is the missing link to ordering my wheels and tires. Problem is that the truck is in the shop: I can't just go there, pull a tire and measure to find out what I need to order. With all these trucks on the road, you'd think...

    How much was my truck lowered?

    Dropped the truck off for some body work and paint. I talked to a couple local tire places and one of them had an 18x10 on 5x5. No tire was on it but it looks like it’ll clear no problem. Now to decide on what size tire. I’m thinking 295/45. Do you think that setup will rub?

    How much was my truck lowered?

    Think so? I’m thinking 18’s cuz of ride quality and towing. Do you know if I can fit a 18x10 torq thrust 2 in the back with out rubbing? Also, What do you think the widest rim I could up front? 18x7 or 18x8? Here’s a pic of the crap that’s on it now:

    No c-notch and you can tell with large bumps

    How much was my truck lowered?

    good evening, new to the site. Bought a truck and have plans for it. Can you guys tell me how much it’s lowered? Also, I’d like to get some torqthrust wheels for it. Do you know what max size wheel/tire will look good on it? Keep in mind that this truck will be hauling and towing when I’m...
