Guy's & Girls, IMO, I have Red as low as I can make it and stil be a daily driver. It's dropped 3" front and 4-1/2" rear. Fender liner's are inplace, no bumping, scraping when run fast on back roads, Tow's my 6x12 motorcyle trailer without issues. No frame slap with the Aeon springs used as bump stops. The ride is firm but not harsh. This is as good as it gets without cutting and compromising the truck as a daily driver. The build is as simple as it gets and is totally passive using parts over the counter.
Mcgauphy 2/4.5 drop spindle kit
o/l removed
Monroe shocks
front coils cut
alignment adjusters
Aeon springs used as bump stops
Caitracs to keep everything in place
