How far is the drop and do you need to get camber kits to keep the wheels from doing the dog sag.

Im still curious about camber adjustments, if a kit is needed and how much of a drop. Did you just change the springs and keep the stock shocks?

looks awesome, I was told that for 2" or less you don't have to worry about camber kits. It can all be adjusted with a front end alignment. Oh by the way, Do not forget to get a front end alignment in about a week or so.
