Tested on a 04 tahoe gives 5.5-6 inch drop over stock.
This morning tested on a 09 Tahoe dropped it 6 inches.

Ride is great on these springs and Ive been installing them since 2001 no issues at all on the 00-06 tahoes.

Any other quetions just hollar.

NOTE- This was tested with the DJM Trailing arm brackets/djm Sway bar links/DJM SHORTER Shocks.


$195 SHIPPED

Finally a straight answer!!! I am 90% sure I will jump on a pair next week when I get paid. I tried to keep up with that thread you and Max had going but it gave me a headache and y'all never definitively said which springs to go with..... or maybe you did and I just missed it.

I am though toying with the idea of doing a simple bag job on the back but my fear is once I open that can of worms I won't be satisfied until I am laying board and then my simple bag job goes from $300 to $3000 real quick so a $200 1'' improvement might be just what I need to save myself from myself.

Im trying to justify spending $200 for an extra 1" drop as well. Are the trailing arm brackets really necessary with a 6" drop because I never had them.

If you guys only want to spend $200 then go for it. im just telling you what set up has the ideal ride.

I just checked and I am at a solid 34 so another 2'' would be worth it for sure.......

How much of a difference will 40's vs 45's make?
