    Thanks, Stroken!
    She has a Belltech 5/7 drop. The front has 2" drop spindles and 3" drop coils. The rear has a 'flip kit', which puts the axle on top of the leaves, which drops it 6" and extended shackles to gain the extra inch to make it 7". I also have a set of 'towing bags' which are an air bag for support and mount on top of the leaves. I have 2 valves, in the back bumper that I can adjust them with a tire pump, with a gauge. It had Belltech "Nitro Drop" shocks which worked good but, they finally lived their life and are discontinued so, I ordered a full set of the new "Nitro Drop II" shocks. They suck! Since the truck is so low, I don't have much travel before it will hit the stops. The Nitro Drop II's don't respond quick enough on compression so, I found that I had to add air to the bags, when the bed was empty, to support the shocks and keep it off of the stops. The fix for that was a set of KYB Gas-a-Just shocks. Rides great!
