I have a 2018 Screw 4WD that I want to drop 2/4, what is the best way to achieve this and who has the best products?
It has been a while since the last truck I dropped back in 1998 so any information you guys can offer is greatly appreciated as I only want to do this once.
I’m going with the 1001HKP kit, it’s the upgraded kit from the 1001HK kit. Suppose to be the best complete kit on the market with fully adjustable front and rear damper system.
Kit arrives Monday and will get installed by Tuesday if all goes well.

Cool, thanks for the info and let me know how it goes.
I bought the bill tech drop kit it was like $1100 came with the sway bar complete kit. The installers I guess did not lube it up when installing it so of course it’s very noisy. So I lubed it all up and for the most part it’s very quiet now except one noise I hear. That noise I believe is my driveline hitting inside my transmission. Have any of you guys experienced this problem? I’m at the point of debating on putting it back up to normal height or taking it in and having the driveline shortened.
If any of you have input please tell me more and what do you think about my diagnostic. Thx
By driveline, did you mean drive shaft? Is your truck 2wd or 4x4? Looks good by the way.

Took it to a buddy of mine who is a mechanic we lifted it up in the air and after looking it all
over he seems to think that the shackles that meet at the middle underneath the bed of the truck or walking back-and-forth basically they’re moving so I’m gonna have them welded so they can’t slip. As far as the transmission he said no way because there’s enough drive shaft travel distance in the vehicle so when you overload it in weight it’s squats and it still should not hit and he said that my truck isn’t at that stage of squatting.
So I’m happy that it’s not the transmission driveshaft issue and I’m sure hoping that those shackle things once welded I won’t get that knock noise anymore or clunk. And it is a 2x4.
