Subject: Re: DML: Lowered the Dak today

I posted this replay the other day i thought it went through but anyway I
used Western Chassie 2.5" drop coil springs for the front and 3" Western
Chassie blocks in the rear and 4 Doetsch Tech shocks It cost me 320.00
shiped
for the parts and 150.00 to have it installed. the only thing is that i now
have to redo the pipes out the back. the place that did it ran the pipes
oner
the center of the rear so now that it is lowered the pipe sets on top of the

rear. I also have to trim the ruber bumpers on the be because if i hit a big

bump it hits. when i get some more money I will get rid of the blocks and
get
the hangers. the shocks are great and the truck handles much much better I
took a corner at 110 yesterday racing a BMW (had him beet up to that point)
that before i coulsd only take at about 75-80.
