Default 2010 Screw fx2 with belltech 3/5 drop

Picked up this kit from tony@tbss about 2 weeks ago and finally got around to installing it. Kit looks and drives great final measurements put it just under 1/4" lower in the rear than front. Tranny crossmember sits exactly at 5.5" from the ground or 1 8.4oz redbull . She was a little dirty in some pics but didn't pay to clean her down before install lol. Still alot left to do but a few teasers to start with.

Not hard at all dropped it off at my buddies dealership and picked it up next day lol. I have bad off shoulders and can't really do installs like this alone. Was there during install though and its pretty straight forward and instructions are pretty good compared to a bunch i have seen before. No rear shims were needed and pinion angle is at almost 0* . I'm actually not far from you i live right outside of houma.

Yep stock 20's with 275/55/20 pirelli's . Also its hard to notice in second pic but i ditched the stock exhaust and went with a flowmaster setup dumped pre-axle. Street scene roll pan & hidden hitch should be arriving at the body shop sometime this week . Then shes off to the audio shop to have my custom box built for my kicker L7 setup.

Oh and i also noticed the the 09+ kit is slightly different from the 04-08 and imo this kit could even be installed as a 4/6 drop sucessfully but the 275's may not clear and shims would 99% surely would have to be used out back to get the pinion angle in spec. After getting the audio setup in and a few miles on it i may bring it back in and drop the coil spacer and lift shackels and give it a shot as 4/6 just to prove myself right or wrong.

For the rear a notch is no question unless you just like banging bumpstops , the front i think i could pull off only due to the fact i got it aligned without notching the bolt holes. But if you had to notch the holes already i deff would say its out of the question without arms too.
