That makes sense. Coincidentally I was planning on doing the back first anyway do to how intensive it seems.I always do the back first, just in case I need to trim the coils in the front to get the right stance
Noted. While I'm pretty comfortable around the toolbox it's always good to hear a realistic estimate from someone that went through this before. I've put aside two days with a workspace in the shade to knock this out. Hopefully with wont be a 20 hours ordeal hah.@Al_Bundy
I don't disagree in theory, but it depends on how comfortable you are with this type of work imo. If you're used to typing on a keyboard it could take you double that.
Using a sawzall and grinder for the notch is the hardest part, and the most time consuming.That makes sense. Coincidentally I was planning on doing the back first anyway do to how intensive it seems.

There are quite a few members here that have W/C lowering stuff on their trucks.Anyone used western chassis products?
They offer a front hanger that is adjustable?
Would be perfect for me 2" rear drop shackle and a 1" front hanger makinga 3 inch drop.

Not me, though.
I've never heard of any of the major suspension Co.'s offering an adjustable front hangar.
1/2t SUV hangars, because of the frame diff, will provide 3/4" more drop than a set of 2" drop hangars. IIRC, the bolt pattern is slightly different so they require some holes drilled in the frame to mount 'em.
BUT...just using the SUV hangars with stock shackles WILL mess with your pinion angle, so be prepared to add some wedges & longer-headed leaf spring centering bolts to get that pinion angle back into spec.
