I'm looking forward to this. I was just thinking how a 4" rear drop would suite me better than the 5.5" would.

I'm interested in this do you have the part number? Will it work with a 2014 with a 2 piece driveshaft?

Any update on this? Although I just put a djm kit on. I'm interested in not having my leaf spring hanging so low.

I got the install directions for this kit from tony! it looks good. But you will half to Modify the Carrier bearing mount by cutting out the OEM Holder..then drilling some holes in the crossmember I think...to mount the new one! More Complex then the other kits are. and u also gotta drill a hole in the frame for one of the shackle hangers also. Not too keen on cutting and drilling holes. would be harder to switch back to stock with the carrier bearing mods you half to do... ...thought this would be a nice bolt on kit with no major cutting and drilling involved! now I'm stuck on going with DJM's kit or just getting the full BellTech 3/5.5 kit! *SIGH* .........:/

Just got the kit and read over the directions and its simple. If it wasn't -5 outside id be doing the install. The trimming is relatively minor.

That is required for the 3/5.5 drop as well....

I have to correct myself, this is not required for single cabs with no carrier bearing and 1 piece driveshafts. instead they give you a shim for your trans. But on vehicles with 2 piece drive shafts you do have to cut.
