     Do you have plans on lowering it ?

No, I like the stock stance as it sits now.

Very nice!!  What's your final drive ratio and tire size?  What do you think of that 383 so far?

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

Sadly, the drive ratio is stock.  It's got 295 17R on it.  The 383 is alot more fun than the old 305 that was tired from ranching...
