hotchkiss springs, small urethane isolators, beltech spindles, hotch. spec billstiens.
rear:
hotch. old spring rate, pancake bump stops, ground force shackles, slam air helper bags

I wasn't going to count bagged setups, seeing as you can't go round layed out all the time. I mean you can, but you wouldn't want to, at least I woudn't want to, lol. Hence the posting of the static trucks.

I have lowered my 2001 2 1/2" in the frt and 4" in the rear. I have 20x10 Boyd Coddington Smoothie II's on 295-45-20 tires. That is really about as low as you can go and still be streetable. As it is I sometimes rub the frt tires and the rear frame will bottom out on the bump stops. Also changes the hole streering geometry and some times my truck will make this loud clunking noise when I turn the steering wheel and backing up. With that all said I love my truck and the stance makes this White Lightning look bad-ass. I get questioned all the time about the Beltec lowering kit thaty was used. Also do not C-knotch the rear frame, though it will solve the rear fame hitting the bumpstop issue you will ruin the trucks value! Sorry I do not have any pictures to show you, yet! Canon digital camera is in the repair shop, but I will be posting some pic's as soon as I get camera back.

That red one above is Cichlids ride, its an air suspension setup. Mine is all static drop with spindles/coils up front and shackles/leafs out back. I wish the rear of mine sat about an inch lower, but that would require frame notching and that is something I am not going to do.

Mine isn't the lowest around but its about as low as you can go without notching the frame or being on an air setup. Here is the money shot..
