Is my 3.5 inch truly 3.5 inch or was I given the wrong lift strut

why would you want it to squat more?

 

Cause I wanna stunt

 

?

 

^ Yes, this. You can't always go off of general marketing materials, especially if they are including multiple truck generations/models in their specs. Also, measure both sides of the truck on flat, paved ground - You might find that the driver side front sits noticeably lower than the passenger side (sometimes it's over 0.5" difference).

 

Nvm the measuring tape was wrong I sit at 24.5 according to a more high quality one. Now that raises the question anyone know how to drop the rear?

 

Lift the front more

 

It’s much more likely that you made an error than the tape measure made an error.
