3/4 drop pix

Check out my site...I just got the rear done the full 4'' about 2 weeks ago. Had to upload the pix. Page 4 or 5 should have some shots of it with the 2'' hangers installed for the full 4'' rear drop. I'll warn you, though. It'll have a slight rake if you have the towing package on your option sheet. I found that out the hard way after lowering mine and then counting the leafs. It says it on a sheet right on the fender "heavy duty rear suspension". I guess the original owner or the dealership ordered mine as a work truck. Oh well. Hope this helps!

If you want to keep a rake in it you need to drop front and rear the same.  IE 4/4.  3/4 is the closest to the factory rake since the rear will still be a little higher.  3/5 will make it close to level since there is about a 2" diff from factory.  Keep in mind not every truck is the same and could differentiate up to 1" or so due to spring fatigue.
