I think 2/2 would be perfect for me. All the pics I see of a 2/3 I think a little more rake would look good. Is there any way to do a 2/2 drop?

Thanks,
Cyrus

Or buy the parts separately. The 3” drop springs only drop 2-21/2 inches. Here’s mine with 2/3

2/3 has a bit of rake. 2/4 is level and to me can look saggy out back.


That’s mine with 2” drop knuckles and 3” belltech drop springs.

Agreed. The rear sloping roof line of these makes the rear look lower even if the fender heights are the same front and rear.

Here’s mine. Just finished a couple of weeks ago
Installed a kit I ordered from Tony(NorcalSS). Love it. Mine is more like a 2.5”/3” drop. It was a 3/3 until I removed one additional ring from under the front spring perch of the new struts. It was recommended to go with 1-10mm and 3-8mm. It say level at that point which did at times appear to have a sag, but it sat level on all corners at 44”. Now it sits at 43.5” front and 44” in the rear. I love it

Before lowering

After lowering, but before removing 1-8mm spacer

Final after removing one 8mm spacer

Looks great. The roof line on the gmt900 makes the rear appear lower even when it’s not.
