Cool I will add that to my plans for my truck. Now all I have to do figure out some taillights that will be different.

I also been thinking about doing this to my truck.

For that smooth look.
and I guess if you want the truck dropped that
seems like a good way to do it.
Personally, I don't like them dropped but that's me.
Raised yes, leveled OK, dropped, no use for it.
