I guess you are opposed to lowering with a dropped axle. What are your suggestions and what kind of truck do you have. I am trying to build a driver on a budget. I recently had a meeting with stacey david and he assured me that I could get my truck lower with eaton detroit springs and make it ride and handle pretty well. I was considering the dropped axle to lower the truck 3-inches and the stock height rod ride springs to give me a good ride. I wanted the larger wheels to make the truck look modern. i was going to use the 20's instead of the dropped axle and keep the truck stock height.
