Default 2014 4x4 lowering kit questions

Im looking to see if anyone has any pics of a 4x4 with a 2/4 lowering kit. I would like to go lower if possible with out compromising ride quality to bad. right now my truck is lifted with 285/60/20.

Im also interested what size tires you are running with 22s and 24s. I am trying to figure out what the stance will look like and how the tires will feel the wheel wells.

just a lot of unanswered questions and thoughts. Ive searched a lot of threads on here and still have many questions. Any and all info is greatly appreciated.

I only did a 2" because I was worried about the angles too.
There are those in here with far more knowledge than me. I'll see if I have pics, or can snap one or 2.
but I love it when people find out it's a 4x4. open plenty of...discussion.

I have an 06 with a belltech 933SP kit installed. I switched phones so I lost my CV angle pictures, but imagine a 2 inch leveling kit angle, but angled up instead of down. 305/50/20's.





not as low as I want it to be, I'm considering buying the belltech 3 inch drop leafs to bring the back down some more. It's the belltech 2 inch drop struts with drop springs, but I stacked the 3 1 inch spacers on the strut. I'm not 100% sure on how much drop the front has, but I think its about 3.5.

I'm leaning towards 24's with either 285/40/r24's or 305/35/r24's

Thanks boom your truck looks great. I have a (4") flip kit but wondering if it will lower me more. Since stock has a 1.5" rear block and then the flip on top of the leaf springs. I was thinking about adding the ground force lowering spring in the front to get an additional 1.5" of drop in combination with the 2" lower control arm drop. Just need some stock tires and I will get the kit installed.

thank ya sir.

Sounds like you got it pretty well planned out. I was considering a flip on mine, but I'm not really a fan of flip kits. i'll see if I can get it on a lift or run it over the pit at work to snap a picture of the CV angle. I've launched it(launching a 3v truck what a joke haha) in 4wd on pavement with no issues. We'll see what kind of winter we get this year in OK to really be the judge.

I'm down in Duncan. Work in Rush Springs. was up in norman a few weeks back at the ACCO safety conference. I roll up that way every once in awhile. I'm always in OKC for Street Car Takeover. Every once in awhile we'll catch wind of some good races going down and we'll roll up to watch.
