2009 slam diesel 2

SVTORANGE · Feb 6, 2015

Doing a 6\8 drop on my 2 wheel drive 2009 GMC 2500HD Diesel here are a bunch of PICS - IF YOU WANT TO BUY FACTORY PARTS OR NEED THEM LET ME KNOW
I am doing this all by myself and it has kicked my ass no doubt but the front suspension is done now to the rear.
Also in the pictures you will see the upgraded trans mount so no more scrapping over speed bumps.
This will be a truly sweet ride when done and I will keep everyone abreast to what I do next.
The black parts in front end are factory and the Grey parts are the DJM KIT no doubt an AWESOME kit hands down and the CUSTOMER SERVICE IS PERFECT AS WELL
Just started the rear flip kit had to buy new bolts and will finish tomorrow.
Pictures are in no particular order - Also had step rails that I am selling on it as I don't need them.
A FIFTH Wheel is installed too NO pictures of that yet - ALSO FOR SALE
REAR FLIP KIT INSTALL STARTED

It looks like you have a nice project going here. Good luck.

Very cool! Looking good :coolman:

But why would you lower a truck!?! It needs to be raised and have monster truck tires so you can cruise the mall parking lot!!! That is the hate and mentality you might get trust me! I love it man, I like a nice lowered truck done right plus yours being diesel is even better!! What rims do you have planned for it? And more pics please!!

Looking forward to seeing photos of the completed project. Should look really good. Oh, and ScreamingFast, that is one good looking F-150 FX2 you have. I like the stance!

Thanks Bob!! I pulled the Plastidip off the rims last week to redo them soon but once I get new tires going to have them painted black. Driving me nuts right now with the rims being gunmetal.

Appreciate the kind words all and no doubt that f150 is sweet. Update with pictures later but rear is flipped and done. Air gun took a shat on me so I had to stop but holes are cut in frame for c-notch. This truck has kicked my ass as all the parts are so damn heavy. But slam 2 is coming along nicely.

Anthony where's the pictures?! Now! Hahahaha sick project man. In for progress pics.

serious question - whats this do to your payload/towing capability?

Coxy · Feb 7, 2015

With chopped up frame rails, it should never tow. Curious to see how this turns out.
