lowering 06 CC Z71
ok well I've started hanging out with some guys that own bag trucks and it has got me thinking......maybe I should drop the
Z71 since I will have a lifted burban to play in the mud. Right now my front fenders are at 36" and rear at 38". I know I could just remove the rear block to eliminate the rake but what about de cranking the torsion bars and pulling a leaf out of the rear. Or de cranking and using a drop shackle? if I do this I will end up with a set of factory SSS 20's also. Here is a photoshop lowdown did that really has me thinking. I've searched and didn't seem to find exactly what I was after.

nope, I can't decide if I wanna drop it or lift it. It will most likely end up in the air with some 35's.

Re: lowering 06 CC Z71
LIFT IT!!! buy a freakin 2wd if you are dropping the truck. now dropped trucks that are being built for being fast, 4x4 is ok, for launching purposes, like faze2183's truck for example
