I would like buy fabricated pieces. I don't want to have to find a donor vehicle. When I look at fatman or TCI it looks like their products will lower my truck. Any Ideas? | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,441 Bolter | | Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,441 | Might try Sid's in Guthrie, Oklahoma. They can do some pretty dramatic suspension stuff. Stock ride height should be a breeze for them.

Ended up with no noticeable increase in body roll. Posted photos 3-06-2013 on the 47-54 Classic Parts site or if you PM me I can send directly to you.
