    yes, drop bracket. you have to have that in order to fit the coilovers you got

    to adjust CO's you just jack the truck up off the ground, loosen the set screw on the CO's and turn away. when your happy with the adjustment retighten the set screw and your ready to roll

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    Call up Pro Comp and ask how much for a spanner wrench.

    Are you going to regear with that?

    And nofords08 did you regear after you put that lift on?

    the set screw is the small allen screw located on the collar above the coil spring

    here are my CO's, you can see it just to the left of the top of the uni ball bolt

    Thanks for the help. Apparently the shop that put mine on pre-adjusted the coilovers prior to putting them on the truck. One of the coilovers is turned to where there is no possible way I can adjust it without taking the whole assembly off. Guess I have a weekend project...
