You can hit my website. I have old pictures of 0-0, 0-2, 2-4, and bags, -+ 7-9. There are pics of 4-6 on Ainoa's truck. I would go belltech for the style of truck that ou have. I would also go 4-6 and not 2-4. Others will tell you the same because 2-4 is not that low after you do it. 4-6 is faster than 2-4 and the cost is about the same. Let us know if you have any questions.

Good luck,

The cheapest way to do a 2/4 would be a pair of 2" coils up front and shackles and hangers in the rear.

The easiest way would be spindles up front and leafs in the rear.

If you want to keep your stock ride, the best way would be spindles up front and shackles and hangers in the rear.

I would personally do the coils and leafs as my favorite choice. :D

Go with the 4/6. I did that right off the bat with DJM components and am happy with it.
See Ya

2" spindles and 2" coils up front and a flip kit in the rear. New shocks all around also.

hehe...it's just been so damn long since I had mine notched that I forget about it all the time.

You won't have to worry about that c-notch. It's stronger than your existing frame. It's not gonna hurt one bit.

The best way to do the 2/4 is the coils, shackles & hangers. DJM is the best bang for your buck...
