- JIMNLINExplorer IIIdepends on several factors. That a lot of weight unloaded from the front of a small block/v6 1/2 ton truck. A 1/2 inch weight loss on my Dodge/Cummins/NV5600 means nothing.
If you notice the front brakes sliding the tires on gravel roads or wet pavement then its time to add lost weight back to your trucks front axle.
Axle weights before and after will tell you a better story. - BoomerwepsExplorerConcur with Gooma and Bobbo.
Sounds like I’m talking baby-speak ;) - BobboExplorer IIThe rule of thumb that I always heard was 1/2 inch. My Ford manual says to put back 1/2 of the rise you get, but 1/4 inch is too small to work with. Either way, you are good to go.
