Guys I just bought a crown lowering kit 2 4 drop.Spindles in the front and springs in the back. After I put the spindles on the front my tahoe does not look any lower it measures 36 inches on stock 20's. Is there something else I have to do on the front for spindles to work?

Brandon, these torsion bar trucks take a few good bumps and a few minutes of driving to settle down.

take it for a short drive and then report back to us.

What Colby said. You had it unloaded while you were swapping the spindles. Go for a shakedown and be prepared to be astounded. Also, I don't know about the GMT800, but the spindles for the GMT900 actually drop 1.75". At least you can adjust your torsion bars (within certain limits) to make it sit where you want it.

You got a 2/4 drop. Was the rear actually 2" higher before the drop? What where the measurements at each corner before you dropped it?
