99 Tahoe Rear Lowering Question

[fredfifty]

So, I just lowered the rear of my PPV Tahoe with 2" DJM Shackles. Pretty easy job. Before I lowered it, the measurement ground to fender was 31 7/8", after the drop shackles were installed, it went to 30 1/2".

Question is, did you use the factory bumpstop? It looks like i can keep it in or shave it down a little bit.

You can shave it a little.

Shave them down or remove them completely and get these.

would you recommend drilling a hole in the center to mount that bumpstop? or will it be fine to mount that bumpstop in one of the pre-exisitng holes in the frame?

You need to remove the rivet that held the stock bump stop and you can use that hole.

dave i got you the shorter rear bumpstop. This will allow you most travel before axle hits frame.
