so.you were.trying to go only 1 inch lower?

 

[bodymccannx]

That's correct. Only the BT springs dropped me over 1.5 inches; if I were just ordering the Arnotts, I would take you up on the offer of the strut mod. However, now that I have the struts on the truck and can't have the truck down for more than a day, I'm looking for the next best option -

Thinking of the strut relocator or BT adj. strut - whichever will keep the ride about the same, drop 1 inch exactly (for a front 3 inch total).

a.machine.shop.should.be able to.do.it in less then 30 min do.you have one.near by?

 

[bodymccannx]

Not one I or my mechanic would truct to do that.

 

[NORCAL SS]

hum nother option is to put full drop yhen you can use 1.5 spacers in front. just trying to do this easiest way.

 

[bodymccannx]

Not too sure what that message means Tony?? Full drop, then 1.5 spacers? I am already too low with 2 full spacers in front - using less spacers would bring me lower.

Are you referring to the BT SP shocks?

[NORCAL SS]

your trying to get a 1 inch true drop in front right?
you put the 1 inch spacer and got a 1.5 drop?

remember not all trucks sit the same in the front there are variances up to 3/4 of a inch depending on what springs gm used.

 

[bodymccannx]

Yeah, I understand variances, but I cannot have my truck with a total 3 5/8 lowering - far too low. With the BT springs and both spacers in, the truck came down 1 5/8 inches. Now I have put the original GM springs back in.

In your opinion, which of the 2 options below is the best route?
1. BT adj. struts
2. Coil Relocators (which in reality do the same as strut mod)

Thanks,
Mark

if you have no time or anyone to trust only thing you can do is waste the money on the strut relocators. i think they are $150 dollars which i think is way to much. im sure there is a machine shop by you with a lathe that can mill it down and do the mod like I do.
