did you swap out to coilovers or did you lower the air suspension? If the air how does it handle with all that air missing? Looks good.

Lowering the car:
Setting the parameters to run 17in wheels and you will get a nice drop and still ride and handle nice,In the pix the car is in entry mode for that super dumped look.
thanks for all the input and kind words.

So I take it that you lowered the air pressure. How did you do it? Did you have a electronic tool or did you set the pressure manually? (with a gadge)

And what did you do up front? Shorter springs?

thats all air suspension. the truck is that low in park. the ride height goes up to riding stance(whatever that is) i cant imagine that ride feeling anything else but sloppy all the time if it was actually that low. it just looks amazing...thats it. dont get me wrong, i love it

Gorgeous. Can you please elaborate on the wheel paint process? Were these powder coated?
