anyone know what drop hangers work on pre 95 tahoes/yukons? i have stock ones on with 2 inch shackles but im thinking of replacing the hangers for another 1 or 2 inch drop......maybe 2wd hangers or suburban hangers or 4dr hangers (mine is a 2 dr.) but havent seen anything specific on pre 95 2drs.....thank you..

thanx for help guys....i think the 4dr hangers would work with some modifying....i thought of a flip kit but i just wanna lower it about 2 more inches so i dont wanna get that drastic...ive found plenty of 2 inch drop hangers but arent sure to get the 2wd ones or the 4dr ones...

Belltechs. for 1995-2000 chevy tahoes/yukons 2 wheel drive, 4doors..
Notta problem on the help, thats why were hear..
But in the For sale section of this website and fullsizechevy, usually these things go for around 40 to 100 bucks used.. its worth a shot looking into used before you throw the cash at something that might not work. I know the 2 door stuff is pretty different then the 4door stuff.
Like the cnotches look reallllly different. soo you might want to look into a pinch more to save some mula. unless you have lots :)

ok....glad you knew that. atleast i now i know where to start....funny thing is that most stuff for all of these trucks our body style are interchangeble....but the aftermarket companys make it difficult for the trucks that are not listed...i really appreciate your help...thank you

Notta problem. make a write up on what you decide to do tho. I know drilling these frames with a big bit is a workout. I blew apart 2 bits on 8 holes of my Cnotch of my truck. so good luck to whatever you do haha

thanx....then i can finally put some 20's on it...gotta find something nice with a +31mm offset or better so they can tuck somewhat...maybe a staggered offset front to back...really like those torque thrust look alikes from gm..they come in +31mm...the originals dont....only +18mm...i already have some new 265/50-20's...traded them for a set of 24's i had on it...just couldnt to with them....so i got rid of them....damn n.y. streets....lol

you can always buy those shitty lowering leaf springs, but then you cant towalot with them.. just a thought. cost like 200 bucks but you can install yourself.
TOWRIGG
12-11-2010, 08:15 PM
there weight capacity is why i didnt go with them...i have seen people use the stock police package leafs and the tahoe limited leafs to lower the truck and still get good towing capacity....but im gonna stick with the stockers for now and see what happens after the hanger install...will hit you up when theyre on...

I've been on the net and calling the past two days trying figure out about the same for my 92 model and everybody like Airbagit.com and Thesuspensionsource.com told me to get a flip kit with 2' LIFTING shackles!!!

Wouldn't that put you at about 5". I know a flip would put you at around 7" plus 2" lift shackles. That would still be requiring a notch on the frame, wouldn't it?
