Do you know what your before and after measurements are?
I didn't measure before and after, sorry.

The only reason I have 4x4 is for winters around here so lower is the way for me too... Plus old habits die hard, as evidenced from my last ride:

I was trying to decide what I wanted to do with my truck, lift it, lower it, or level it.
So for right now I decided to level it by putting 2" lowering springs in the rear.
I'm still undecided if I want the lowered look, 2/4, 3/5 with some 24's or 26's or if I want to do a 6" lift and run 35's or 37's. I guess I will wait and see what lowering kits they come out with for the 19 4x4's.
But for now I'll be running it this way till I can really decide what I'm going to do, as I really don't care for the stock rake look.

Looks Killer! Exactly how I would do mine, same package as well. Do you have the 3.92's?
Did any of you install the helper bags when you installed the dropped springs?
I absolutely love the lookJust a simple 2" lowering spring in the rear makes all the difference.
So for less than $150 and about a hour of your time you can make the truck level and look so much better without the factory rake. Just a option instead of raising the front to get the truck level.

Hdlnium1,
I just want to say "thanks alot!!!" you just added more complexity to my already uncertain mind on what I want to do with my truck!!! lmao!!! Love the look!!!
This is my first truck modding, just for the record. I don't jump right out there....I try to be methodical with my approach...most of the time before I jump on something.
My question to you; can you tell a difference with the center of gravity....like going around a curve with a little speed? While I love the ride of my stock RAM19 coming from my 2000 ram SLT. I still love to have better handling first in any vehicle if possible. While I have been thinking of the Hellwig (need to compare it with othes) swaybar, this lowered rear end may also be a welcoming appearance and handling mod for me.
Al, any pics yet?
SupremeWill, do you have adjustable helper bags or do you have to manually set the psi?
Love the look Hdlnium1 !!!!![]()
