    djm beams, the only way.
     
  3. Yeah, drop beams. Only other option is to yank the whole front end and replace it with something else.

    Thanks for the responses. Just as I suspected, either drop I beams or sub-frame it. Thanks

    You could also just go under your truck with a torch and just cherry red the axel close to the wheel. You will see the truck start to drop. But don't go to far. slow and easy. also helps if you put wood blocks under the frame so it cant go to far.

    Don't worry, I'm not dumb enough to use the torch "trick".
