Thinking of lowering my lifted hoe

[slipping]

99 4dr 2wd I bought used. From what I've found out through searching far and wide about the lift is its a 4" front fabtech lift spindles with 3" blocks in back. It has a 3" body lift and 35" tires. While its been fun having it lifted I'm contemplating dropping it low. Maybe 3/4 or 5/6 drop. Maybe even bagged later on. Obviously I'd have to bring body lift back to stock (where to get parts for that?) And get different rims and tires. What would I look for as far as lowering kits? What's best? What's not? Oh and how much of a pain will it be? Thanks all!

to remove the body lift, I'd recommend getting the mounts and bumper brackets from a junkyard and then trying to trade suspension and wheels if you don't want to buy everything new. If you want everything new, belltech is good, so are djm and mcgaughys. A 3/4 will require the least work and still look lowered. a 4/6 or 5/7 is going to require a little more work.

just a couple ideas to get you going.

I didn't even think bout junkyard. I was planning on going there to get some ttops for my nonttopped camaro. Thanks man!

also depend on how low you wana go. but a guy on here found and did a thread not long ago. and used blazer k5 i believe body mounts and those gain additional like inch of drop if i remember.. and trading the wheels and tires shouldn't be ******* here.. same with life.. hunt you a LKQ or pick n pull yard and pull the components you want and save even more money. i would order the drop spindles.

here man read this thread.. and do this when you remove the body lift.

Awesome read, thanks man. I was doing a search and reading everything I can.

so going with the k5 body mounts (and keeping in mind maybe bagging it later down the line) i see these two 4/4 and 3/3.5 as possible options:

I was also looking at the 5/7 but which would fit best for if i decide to bagg it?

I have yet to decide rims and tires. But i think Ill save that for the morning.

Only for NNBS SUV's, we have nothing for torsion front ends.
