how were you planning on getting the three inch drop on the front? control arms plus lowering springs? just wondering, and making sure you know you cant drop the front with just coils (that far)...

ill be happy to send you pictures of my drop, its getting put on this week!

2 inch a arm and 2 inch spring gives me a total of 3 inch drop in the front. but i want to see the difference between 2 and 3 for the front. cause i have stock tires 255/55/17. my truck is a 2000 dodge dakota RT single cab.

ok, i was just making sure you knew that...
i did a 2 inch just because of cost, all those extra parts up front are expensive (arms), just for that one more inch!

good luck!

curtis you have a 3 inch drop on yours. on mine i would need a 4 inch drop coil to achieve a 3 inch drop because rts are allready lowered in the front 1 inch by a coil.

so a 2/3drop for a rt is really a 3/4 on a sport.
rts are 1 inch lower than sports by coil and leaf.

thanks for your picture even thou it didnt help out much. i want to see rts with 2/3s and 3/4s

yes, but tell me who makes 4 inch drop coils? wouldnt be very friendly on alignment...

3 inch drop coils give you a 2 inch drop on a r/t.. im sure there is no one that will opbject to that! :)

no gap whatso ever?? umm i dont think you want to do that, your more then likely be rubbing, alot of the time. but 2 inches leaves you a nice amount of room, and from what ive seen 3 inches doesnt kill all the gap. but i seriously dont think you wanna be riding the fenders!

no gap with that size tire and R/T wheel will
chew the sidewall to shreds, unless some
serious cutting and fabrication is done. (thats
the reason R/T's come with fender flares...its
a 17X9 wheel)
