have drop spindles, ART upper and lowers, SD upper bag cup(2inches tall) and RS72s up front. Ride height is like 85psi and rim is just under fenders. Have 20s with 245/35/20. At 100psi over the tires like 3inches, any higher well you get the idea

I got the smaller slams in front i think the rs 62's with 2" drop spindles and 3" cups from sd.com and i can lock out the art arms...not sure what psi though. Those arms give you a good amount of drop, I had to replace my old cups with the new ones cause i wasn't getting any lift either. Best of luck with it.

i never run 2500s with aftermarket control arms, the amrs are made to lay out so you lose a lot of lift right away. get different bags.

yes but if you run a 2600 lb bag it will rub and eventually pop thats why it needs to be staggered closer to the spindle a little. plus you need a bag that big with the heavy front end of the s10 with the v6.
Ahh, yeah I wasn't thinking about that.

well mission accomplished. the 2600 bag worked. I can bottom out the arms now. I clear tire by atleast 3". at 120 psi.
