What will you gain by doing the newer ifs front ? And all my ideas normally go the other way when it comes to height adjustments

How much are you wanting to lower it?

Well, for right now, I'd love to get a larger engine in it, and maybe raise it a couple of inches. Not too high, though....I think that only looks good on the bigger trucks. (just my opinion, of course. As far as the area I live in, I actually spend more time in Winston and Kernersville. Also head out to Concord every weekend.
