I have been pondering this all day even stopped at a wrecking yard to day to get some ideas.
Will inverting the front hanger on the rear lower the rear at all or would the rear hanger or shackles have to be altered as well
Next looking at my hangers if inverted they will mount with eye bolt hole above the frame rail farther than the bed floor will allow . I have looked at some later model dodge hangers and the are simular to my rear hangers even smaller in over all height the draw back here is they are 2 1/4" wide mine are 2" wide, and shimming could fix this.
I'm considering lowering due to the fact I would like to occupy the space in the fender wells with tires with out putting monster mudder on it , the way the front sits currently I can live with ,
Call me crazy but having a stepside I have entertainted the thought of moving the fenders down on the bed , thus not altering the suspension at all.
Any thought comments or suggestions will be accepted

In life many men take the path of righteousness, some take the path many others follow (G.M. owners, for example), some take a more arduous path, some a simpler path. I, sir, took the PSYCO-PATH!!
