    Lowered the truck using the tundra racing kit Also cut the front coil to go lower and I took off one leaf spring in the rear to lower it more. So now I'm going to C notch the chassis to go lower in the rear and purchase adjustable coils. DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE I CAN PURCHASE ADJUSTABLE COILS SO I CAN MAKE THE FRONT GO LOWER? Let me know. Thanks in advance

    Also changed the the sliding window to a straight glass to give the truck a more cleaner look. Looks really good from behind including the roll pan!

    Hows the upper control arm clearance to top of inner fender well? Good clearance? I know the lower you go closer it gets. Your truck looking real good with those rim and tires .Nice job :thumbsup:

    I did. Took an inch out of the top. On my phone, I have a link to a company which makes custom steering knuckles for drops. By moving the hub mounting location. I'd have to look for it.

    @hemitruk sorry for the late reply. regarding the upper control arm, yes i got 2" clearance from the control arms to the upper fire wall. but the ride of my truck is really smooth AND THE CONTROL ARM IS NOT TOUCHING THE FIRE WALL ON THE BUMPS..but im going to cut the front knuckle arm soon so i can go lower in the front and buy the bolt on C notch kit then weld it for the rear chassis.
