Its gonna matter on how much torque you have... if
you have a ton of torque you can get away with the
back end being higher but even with a 408 you might
be short on torque.... but I dont like the back end
up in the air(personal thing... that went out a long
time ago)

I cant make the frt any lower I have 4in clearance oil pan and 3.5 for tranny pan. Its close in rear but I took the shocks off and bounce the rear pretty hard and nothing hit. If I go with the neg 1 everytime I have to take a tire off I will have to take shackles off.I have the zeros on now I guess I will leave them.Do these split monos sag after a while?
Thanks for all the kind words

Also... when you showed the back up... were you lifting
it on the rear end... didnt really see an difference
in the tire to wheel well

0...I like a little tuck...not in the weeds, but not stick bug...

What size you got on the back?

With the stock width axle, I just have to jack up by the body to slide the tires off
