1) 05 reg. cab
2) 2wd
3) 2/4 or 3/5
4) want it done right
5) belltech
Im pretty sure I want to start with the spindles up front and a 4" drop in the back. I figure if I end up not liking the 2/4 I could add the struts up front and then go to a flip kit in the back down the road. I want to go lower just not to low so I thought that was a good plan. I like the spindles for the front but Im not really sure how to get the rear down the 4" (shackles and hangers or something else)?
Also was wondering if I should go with the shock extenders or new shocks in the back and why?

04 up the rear 4 or 5 inch drop is a flip kit reguardless. If you have high miles on your truck your much better off going with the belltech drop struts in the front.
the 3/5 kit which is
front drop struts
rear flip kit
rear shocks
$590 shipped lower 48 states.
If you have any other questions just shoot.

95 percent of the 04 up trucks i lowered shocks have been gone by 25k miles.
if you need new balljoints your better off going with the djm kit because it includes new balljoints and will lower 2.5 or 3.5 inches.
the spindles you lose turning radius just want to make that clear to you. I have lots of customers that complain about that. Just tell me which way you want to go for sure and ill price it out for you.
