Pulling out the lift kit and hate the way they sit stock, so who has lowered a 2500hd 2wd? Looking for good kits not the junk. Tired of paying 350 for a tire when its lifted.

I had one... done very right.

Needless to say, it was a lot more expensive to do than tires. I had $5500 or so into the drop, not including installation, which I did myself over the course of a week.

Much more into the new fender flares that got dialed in, custom "step bars" that I built to take up the space left by the body lift where you could see the frame no matter what, dropped spindles, c-notched rear end, relocated everything, exhaust, air system, wiring, wheels/tires etc...

I had tossed around the idea of dropping my truck. But a slammed straight axle 4x4 is like lifting a 2wd. And there was no way to get it as low as I would want.
