3/5 Sucks!!!

[G-NOTE]

We installed the 3/5 Mcgaughys kit and I don't know if it takes a while for the springs to settle, but the rear is up in the air...

At least 3" higher than the front...

I don't know what to do, but this ain't going to work...

The bump stops ARE cut, and proper lowered shocks installed...

When a couple of my buds get into the back it looks good, but right now it is crap!!!!

Do they make 6" drop coils??????

I say you take pics so we can help you better!

I was just getting ready to get 4/5.
Can you please post any pics and have
you found a solution for the back?

Thanx

what size tire and how much wheel gap do u have? these things cant go much lower than 5" without some modifications. i have the same drop kit and the rear takes a few days to settle. what shocks are you running? did u leave the rubber isolators out on the rear springs?

Hey bro, I have the same kit. Honestly I want more drop too, but your springs/shocks will settle some. I don't know how much, mine seemed to be about 1/2 -3/4 in.

took a week for mine to settle, but that was maybe 1/2 or so... Mine rides excellent!

Whats the deal on the 8" drop spring??? Mr DJM???

This is how the truck sits all the time!

 

[ecordell]

Do you have the spring isolators out?

Done the free travel mod?

 

[G-NOTE]

If free travel mod is cut the bumpstops than yes...

Isolator mod ?

Other than pulling them out, how can you mod them...

Even still thats good for 1/2" at best, I need about 3"....

My front is turned all the way up, so it doesn't look stupid compared to the back!

maybe you got wrong springs. i have a 02 tahoe with belltech 3/4 and my rear sits lower than that, i kept the bump stops and stock rear shocks w/ shock extenders and i have 24's

 

[fatnlowtahoe504]

thats odd, wrong springs maybe

Did you remove the coil isolators? If so you have a 3/5 same springs I have, fatnlow had, and nathan has on his esky. I love my springs.
