hey guys i put on the 3inch drop coils today from ebay. it looks great and rides good. i am the stock tire 255/55/17 and i can only stick 2 fingers in between the 2. i am happy with the way it came out. well worth the $50. i recommend them. also i cut the bump stop. about 35% remains of it. and i used drop shocks. so your result might differ.

Chris, How much did those 3" Coils actually lower your Truck? Do you have the stock arms? Also, how hard were those Coils to install? Thanks in advance!

my tires do not rub at all.
on the 00 rt first i used arms they dropped it 2 inches. then put the stock arms back in and put in 3 inch drop coils. and lowered it about a 1/2 more than the 2 inch arms did. doing it in your driveway might be frustrating but if you have a shop, very easy. the 3 inch coils dropped my truck about 2 1/2 but RT come with a 1 inch drop coil stock so about 3- 3 1/2. it looks good and rides good. i can fit 2 of my fingers inbetween the top of tire and the fender flare!!
