I want to put a 3/5 drop on my 94. But I have a four wheeler that I throw in the bed and when I get it good and muddy it tips the scale well about 500lbs. Does anyone have any suggestions on hauling with a drop? open to anything

They have kits that add airbags to the back that help when you have a load. Either that or adjustable air shocks would probably work good too. I dont know too much about either though, i only know about bags if the truck's on the ground. But with a 5" drop and towing something, you'd prolly want to c-notch the frame, cuz if not, when u tow u might be riding on the frame. Mine's dropt about 5" and when i put a couple hundred pounds of cabinets in the back, i rode rough as hell on the axle on the way home. hope this helps, and hope someone else can tell u more about the load-support stuff.

thanks man. I've looked into the air shocks so right now I'm just kind of looking around for ideas. www.Shockshopusa.com told me they have some that are made by gabriel.
