What's a good drop to go with, without having bed sag? All the drops ive ever seen make the bed appear to sag, and it just looks bad..i mean who wants their truck to look like it's got a load on it? So, whats the best drop w/o sag? (ps i just want a moderate drop, i DO live on a dirt road and dont need it bottoming out on the potholes)

It all depends on how worn out your leaf springs are. If you have real worn out leaf springs and you flip your shackles without dropping the front at all, its possible the rear may look lower.

So I guess the question is, how worn out are your springs? Does it sit close to level now or does it have some rake?

3" beams and a shackle/hangar flip my friend.



That'll put you where you're wanting.

Those gen I's are more level sitting as it is compared to my '94. I kept my front end stock and just did the shackle/hangar flip. Now it sits an inch higher in the back, but if you did the same thing then the bed would sit lower by an inch or so.
