IBCNYA Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Ok folks Just a quick question. I live in Anchroage, AK. so the max drop I want to do is 2/3. What I would like is some input on how I should approach this. I want the best drop/performance package I can get that makes the truck look level and slick. I have seen some Belltech and some Mcgnaughty. With differing opinions of both. Enlighten me please with your vast knowledge on the best option for me keeping in mind the performance of the truck. I also dont want to feel the bump through my seat if I happen to run over one. Thanks for your time.. Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTsBadSS Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 I think 90% of the guys on this site used the Mcgaughys drop kit and there where no complaints. I love it made my truck handle a little better 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBCNYA Posted July 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Woooo NICE !! Me Likey... Where and how much? Did you do it yourself or have a shop do it? Great looking and levels the truck out nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTsBadSS Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 the kit was 390 and the job was to much for me and my boy to do it if you don't got the tools make a shop do it. The shop by me charged me 300 with a wheel alinment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m396 #00-011 Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 From what I have seen, the McG's kit would be the way to go. Although, I've just turned down the torsion bars, flipped the load spring, used BellTech shackles to do my job. Next is the rear hangers. After that, I should be at the same level as the McG kits.

TimB Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Hey Ryan did you do the air bags. Ive been thinking about doing the same just for when I tow or carry a heavy load other than myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
once&forall Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Hey bigtsbadss what size are your rims and tires, and also is that a 2inch drop in the front and a four inch drop in the back. Does everything clear with all that done? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
