you can make an edge a std 4x4 just by loostening the tensioners as MANY of us have said.... look where the bars mount in the frame at around the T case... you will see 2 roughly 3/4" headed bolts.... just back them out about 2/3s of the way and you will drop the truck 3 inches... remove block and you are good to go.

you can take the bolt all the way out.. but then you risk loosing all tension if the keepers fall out so leave it in atleast the length of the diameter of the bolt...

1 bad.... you arent cutting the frame... just the botom bracket and replacing it with a longer one dropping down below the axle... effectively bringing up your axle and lowering the truck... it has nothing to do with a moron ricer.. when kits arent available those Who want one BUILD it theirself.... dont you work on a CNC machine...... built youself a set of dropped mounts and weld them to the axle..

they are airbags, you cant move the mount on the axle... besides buying 3" shorter bags is easier than cutting steel apart. lol.

you're fukking delusional and clueless. to make that work I would need to relocate both top AND bottom mounts. the bag mount is directly on top of the axle.
