I know what you mean but it is 3/5 but i crank the torsion bars up some because it was to bumpy even with the bump stops remove i think i need some heavy duty front shocks the ones that come with the kit are to soft. thanks for the complements

Ok....So what is being said is your truck should be lower!? Man and i tought it was low enough already. Thats nice.

What is the height of those 24's you runnin btw? I'll compare with my 22's. I'm thinking its going to be a 3-5 for me too.

I checked McG's kits... which one should i get? I suppose one with the spindles, front spring (2'' spindle, 1'' springs) And what for the rear? 5'' springs? I heard of ''Peddlers' springs being the shit, you guys know of that?

I'm still learning my way thru truck parts catalogs so please bear with me lol!!

Also, what/ who's shocks then? (as if i take your comment, Johnny, maybe a full kit is not the best idea)

I'm thinkin, maybe i should get McG's spindles, Peddlers springs and (insert suggestion's) shocks?

Lead.

Sami still waitin on the pics man! Johnny, nice one you added! Post up some more!
Lets keep this thread alive, i want to see more and i need some motivation to work on mine....

First, my tires are 32 1/4 tall
this are the shock im thinking of Bilstein front HD Shock 2000-06 SUV Suburban-XL
F4-BE5-6082-H0.
well the kit is the way to go because all you're parts will be cheaper then getting then all separated you just have to get better front shocks

It looks good but it just doesn't look like it is 3/5 lower. Maybe its just me.

mcgaughys 5 inch springs sit 1.25 inches higher than the djm 5 inch tahoe spring and 1.75 higher than the djm trailblazer 4 inch spring. Trust me on one thing you swap out that rear spring to the DJM tb 4 inch drop spring it will ride a lot better.

Well once I sell my OBS drop parts (too free up some money) I will hit you up for parts to drop my 04 XL.

So I was thinking earlier that I had been a little harsh on my post and that's not my style and was going to apologize about my rudeness.....

But what was the reasoning behind all of the extra money thrown into making the fenders look smaller with a smaller wheel? It looks like that with everything you've done to the interior that you would have also spent some on bigger wheels and maybe a drop kit?

Mostly really nice rides in this thread! Once I get mine dropped a little I'll officially post it in here. Hopefully this will happen relatively soon.

Anybody do these drops themselves? Need input on some heck ups people ran into. I have a Ground Force kit 2/3 with shocks, springs, keys and bump stops. Put this question in a lot of windows but no real answers.
