Title: need some opinions on what to do
Post by: ShortTemperd on September 06, 2011, 09:30:05 PM
so im debating if i wanna drop my truck 2 inches and get a set of 31x12.50 boggers and give it a mean look or if i want to drop it 2 inches of susp and put on 2 body and have a dd set of 33x12.50s and a bogger set of 31x12.50...but... and this is a big BUT. loll if i left it droped 2 inches id be able to run my front driveshaft all the time as of now the angle is to much for it and it dont like that to much or if i spend more money i can do the 2 inch susp drop and then do a 2 inch body an still have it at the same hight and be able to run the shaft but it think itll look wierd on 31x12.50  ??? idk let me know what yall think or if ya have any ideas

Id just take the money you thinking of spending and buy a high angle drive shaft for it.
