Well I finally got my 4th Dodge spare 20" steel spare wheel. I would like to see pics of your truck with these and what your suspension set up is.

I have the DJM drop beams but have not installed yet. Not sure what I will be doing to the rear so looking for ideas.

Justiz I wanted to check out your truck again but dang Photobucket.

Thanks
Kenny

I went to the second page of Hio's Compilation sticky at the top of our page.

I guess u didn't read the title. Dodge steel 20"s. I didn't see that in the list.

 

Jeff's referral is for options to lower the rear end per your post.

.. Typically the options are: DJM shackles and spring hangers; flipped spring hangers; then an axle flip & frame C-notch.

In terms of Dodge 20s, there was a thread within the last six months if I recall correctly, I suggest using the advanced search (never the basic 'search') for this forum and I am confident threads will pop up.

here is my old truck with them. DJM beams up front. Axle flip out back.

285/50/20 tire back
245/45/20 tire up front

 

Here was mine. DJM beams in front with replacement moog coils and a djm flip kit in the rear. 1" spacer on passenger side.

With a 2" spacer on the passenger side later swapped for a 1". 1" spacer on the stock spare tire carrier for the 20.

 

F100 I like the way this sits. I might go a little smaller in rear tho.

I'm finally getting read to install my Dodge steelies but trying to figure out what size tires I should run. I will be installing my 4.10 this weekend too.

Fun times
Kenny
