1/2 to 3/4 lower than what your at now.

sounds good..I still need to get my front down..im at 33.5 and 33.75..its not quite level but i dont want to mess with the alignment until i figure out if im gonna drop the front another inch or not

 

[89 chevy]

Im at 31 1/4" and my frame is not notched. Im sure I will have to notch it sooner or later.

Thanks Tony!

 

[NORCAL SS]

yes you did a body drop also correct? 1 inch

 

[89 chevy]

Yep, I almost got 2in outta it. Idk how, but i was almost 2in lower after body drop.

 

[NORCAL SS]

you guys should have your springs on saturday

Tony

 

[89 chevy]

Ok, Thanks Tony!

I will put a thread up when I put them in?

 

[NORCAL SS]

You guys get em today?

I put the springs in today and for some reason it raised it 1/2"???? I have shock extenders with bilstein 5100's.

 

[NORCAL SS]

like i said in the posts all kits were done with
djm trailing arms
djm rear swaybar kit
djm rear shocks

this is what i use on them and also matt14 had it on his and dropped 1/2.

 

[MeanGreen03]

I am using all of djms rear hardware besides the shocks. I guess I can disconnect them and see if they are holding me up but I don't see how they would be...

they take some time to settle as well..what are your fender measurements?

 

[NORCAL SS]

i never run the isolators also no issues.

 

[MeanGreen03]

With the old spings they were 33.5" and 34"....WIth the new springs they are 34" and 34.5". I'm running a 305/35/r24 tire. I havent ran the isolators since I had the other springs in.

 

[89 chevy]

Well I am putting mine in tomorrow, and I hope it dosen't raise it up.....I have all DJM Components, Im gonna keep my fingers crossed.

 

[89 chevy]

I installed the springs, and it didn't raise it up. It lowered a 1/4in so far, and I have drove it maybe 5miles because it is raining and I don't want to get it dirty. I will drive it tomorrow and the next 5 days because its not suppose to rain. I am VERY happy with the springs expecially because it has improved the ride 110%. It rides like a stock one, and that makes me extremely happy. I hope it settles a little more too!!

Thanks Tony!

no prob im telling you guys these springs ride by far the best out of any spring out there.

this is just another write up and experience to add to the many others that ive done over the past 8 plus years of using the djm 4 inch springs in back of a tahoe.

I installed these coils on my 07 Avalanche over the weekend and I can tell you these thing ride like a caddy!!!

I have the DJM Rear Hardware kit and DJM shocks and it rides great. Couldn't ask for more

I will get measurements tonight and I will try to upload some pics soon.

Thanks to Tony for all the help!!

sweet man good to hear. Im not bullshitting people on these drop springs they ride great with the djm set rear hardware kit and shocks. By far the best riding 5 inch plus drop combo.

I forgot what are you running in front? also did you take a before/after measurement of the rear?
