    If youre happy with that stance on the red truck, you could probably just do a reverse eye and remove a leaf or two up front, and do the same on the back.

    I think the 4" drop axle gets weird with mechanicals, I think its been done, but it seems like a lot of work ( to me atleast) and would make me want to just put juice brakes on.
