Also you(Tony) said if I bring rear down too much tires will cut up with fender lip, hence me only wanting to bring it down an inch.


Measure the truck from ground to fenderlip all around whats it at now? Man 3 piece wheel time with 50mm offset would tuck so nice.

Droop!! - Nice to see "they all lived happily ever after " ... !!
Glad to see the front is fixed, and things are progressing.

Thanks to all this, I have to get a hold of Tony next week and order my rear sway...

Thats the one i should have gone with. Chris from the suspension source said it would fit. She verified it, plus gave me Belltech's 800#. Called them, gave them my setup info and they also said it would fit. Technically it does. Just not with much clearance.

Who did you buy the swaybar from the first time? I've been selling this bar for a while on here and doing local installs has been working good. Im doing a local customers 2013 next week. One things for sure when you install the parts you sell helps a lot with questions, just look at how many you had with your front I helped on lol

Oh FoSho!!!! You've hella helped, Tony. Accepted my phone calls, walked me thru, txt'd me back countless times.

I bought my Belltech 908sp kit (I think that's the #) from Chris at TheSuspensionSource. She was very helpful, wasn't pushy trying to sell a kit or anything. When I asked for a swaybar also this is the one she sent, 5548 I think.

When I noticed problems with the sway bar I call her, she checked compatibility, verified it, and gave me Belltech's number also. I called them, I think they said they were outta Sanger, Ca. They said my bar fits both stock and lowered height. That I'd be fine. Like I said it does fit, just limited space.
