    So, I am contemplating different ways of lowering my '00 9900... I see there is a Hendrickson front air with some adjustability available, but imagine that would be quite costly. There is a 2.5 or so inch tall block under the leaf packs, anyone ever remove this? the bottom shock mount is integrated into this spacer, but international also has a top spring mount one available aswell, so that would fix that problem up... Anything else i am not thinking of? Anyone else out there dropped their Cornbinder? Not alot of info out there on the internet about it.

    Never slammed a truck but I imagine you'd need to have a shop re-adjust your driveline angles to prevent vibrations. Might need to shorten driveshaft between front diff and carrier bearing too.

    Looking at doing a body drop on my 99. I think I can get 4 to 5 inches by reseting the air suspension between the frame rails and refabing the frount cab mounts and hood hinges. Will be my project next spring
