    Diff drop pics

    So I was doing some research on a potential diff drop. I went out to look at my truck and it looks like it's already done! Since I never saw my VX stock, I'm not 100% certain. Can someone look at these pics and tell me if this is a fabbed dif drop? Also, take a look at the cross member, is that custom fabrication as well?

    It’s defiantly been dropped, looks like about 2 inches. Has the suspension been lifted?

    Yes, it has a 3 inch Calmini lift and 1 inch body spacers. that's why I was looking into the dif drop. which led me to this discovery! lol

    Yup..looks dropped.

    Notice how the cross member has been notched.. to allow drop.
    Thats a sure sign even if the other pics are TOO huge to view!!

    It looks like the PO got the diff drop from Darlington so it's a 2" drop.

    wierd that they got the Darlington diff drop though but didn't get his crossmember drop brackets. Would've saved them some significant work on the install.

    Yeah, I'm just glad I didn't have to do it.

    The crossmember modification was much easier on the Calmini bar than it would have been for the OEM. The crossmember drop brackets are just bolt on though so ... easy/peasy.
