Needs a bath badly but these south FL storms aren’t having that.
got the drop done. Went with belltech front struts set at 2”, crown 4” flip with AAL, and fox 2.0 rear shocks. I’m gonna let it settle some more but thinking it’s going to get the 1” lift shackle.

Looks really good! I would say it needs an inch down in the front or an inch up in the rear though. At least that's what it looks like in that pic.

it’s about 3/8” higher in the front. I will be adding 1” lift shackle so it has .5” rake

Got the lift shackles in the truck (not the easiest job having the flip kit and add a leaf making the springs more bowed) but I now have 3/8” rake which is exactly what I was going for.

Sits perfect now!

Have you looked into changing the rear differential to a traction lok? I'd sure like to get rid of my e-locker so I'd have something usable on the street.

thanks. I think so too.

yea, I definitely want to do some type of LSD. I know a couple high HP guys who have broken the E lockers. I don’t even use mine.

Like the paint correction, those pictures really do show the metallic very nicely.

I like you're going for some lighter wheels - i did wonder when you mentioned 22" why you'd choose that if you're going for acceleration, cutting that wheel weight will help accel. Did you do any working on a smaller wheel with appropriate tyre Vs the larger wheel for overall weight?

That rake you corrected it to really works too, i think that's spot-on now.

I actually have access to a full 17" forgestar drag pack to get my 10.99 when good weather gets here. I have always been a big fan of racing at the track exactly how you drive it. I love the look of 22s so I decided to get the lightest ones possible. If I can get it to run 11.20s or 11.30s on 22s in good weather (already been 11.5 on heavy 22s and full weight + in 3000DA) then I will be happy with that and will just slap the drag pack on, remove some weight, and get the 10.9X
