Lance -

What do you think about using the same kit to lower a Club Cab R/T ?

I would like to lower mine , but I have been ruling it out because I
definitely do not want to disturb the exceptional handling characteristics
of the truck as it sits from the factory .

Probably before any lowering , I am thinking of either some 18" Colorado
Customs Hancocks (if I win the lottery) or the new Niche Throttles that I
see in the new Truckin' .

Good thing that I'm not rich......I would quickly be poor if I were .
