Lowering a truck wont make it handle better, it kills the fuck out of the suspension. Have you ever driven a lowered truck? They ride like shit and your turning radius is shot to hell because your wheels rub the wheel wells. That totally fucks your handling. A lower center of gravity doesnt always mean better handling. Plus lowered truck suspension still has bad body roll. Lowering will not make it handle better. Trust me, I'm speaking from experience. Why do you think trucks like the SVT Lightning, SRT-10 Ram, and SS Silverado all have body kits? Because they arent lowered more than an inch from stock 2wd versions of their models. They have strongs coils and leaf springs. Thats where the handling comes from. To the dude with the nissan, If you do lower your truck only drop it about 1" front / 2" rear, and put stiffer coil springs, leaf Springs, and better shocks. Thats where the handling is at. Dont go cheap and cut the coils off and drill new holes for the leafs. That will only make it worse. And to everyone else, if you dont know much about customizing pickups, dont try and correct people. And dont post when youre pissed off it makes you sound stupid.

LOL, rubbing the wheel well? You have never had a ride in a dropped truck done right. Why do you ignorant pepole insist on being morons? I suppose a 4x4 lifted trurck would out handle a dropped 2wd? Center of gravity means nothing hey? I stick to my word as you being an idiot.

GTP, read the post again, if you do it right, stiffer springs etc.... It will handle better, If you go cheap, cutting and drilling etc.... It will suck worse. Its in the post, what are you talking about? And no a lifted truck wont handle better but I do know some people that have lifted trucks that run a damn quick 1/4 mile. Most people do go cheap on lowering jobs because its easier that way and it kills your ride and handling, when done right it is a benefit. Thats what I said in the first place, why must you insist on putting words in my mouth?

Since your new, I'll give you a break. Trust me when i say that GTP knows what hes talking about. There arent many people who know what theyre talking about, and the only ones who do actually stay and continue to use this board. Ex- TallJosh,BlownGTP,GTP Sleeper, Bignick , LS4,SweetNeon,Buddhakwake,VWNut,D15powerd, and most notably Uglystick. I realize that this may be the gayest thing I've ever posted, and i feel my heterosexuality flying out the window because of this, but I wouldnt trust anybody else's information.
