hey people
i am going to do a big slamming of my dual cab very soon most probably 6"+ i have 17x7 mags fitted with some 235/45 tread i know they will fit cause i have ben talking to the man chief but what i want to know is it worth spending the $400 odd dollars on some stifferners for th front?? i know there will be limited travel so they sound the only way to go just alot of money?
i got the rest of the gear for lowering just want to find peoples opinions?
cheers

I have done the lowering thing sway bar is about 65mm off the ground beam about 90mm i have 225/50/15 on the front and if i have two people in the front it scrubs over bumps but i dont have stiffners but i need adjustable spring plates the back is ridged but looks really cool
You only need two tools
Wd40 if it don't move and it should
Duct tape if it move's and it shouldn't
have use guys used a different sway bar?? i think a standard one will scrape?
cheers

have never bottomed out.
running 225/45/15 on 17x7.5 rims.
using Adjustable Koni's and the factory swaybar.
only drama sometimes is fronts scrubbing at full lock.
not sure if it's 150mm lowered, but it's at least 100.
will be getting down even further soon
kool as i have got some stifferners on there way i think it will be very necessary for the lowering job im going to do!
i love ya bus dude wish i had 10.5k!!
cheers

I'll even deliver it for you.
I've got all the seat anchors for it now, so I'll send you some interior pics with the rear seats in.
ryhs go for dropped spindles as well just to keep a bit of ride quality

I had a Crew Cab, with the Chief's dropped spindles. Check Kruizinwagon site under bays....I didn't have sways or stiffeners in it, but then was running 15" rims. Had no dramas at all with Indian's lowering front and back end. Get the alignment and tracking done though once you done it. Had it like that for a good 3 years or more with no dramas and the same set of rubber bands.
Due to the lack of weight in the CC, it handled really well without sways.
