needs lowered
Hey guys, I need some help. you guys that have your truck lowered 2/4, how stiff did the ride get, I want to lower my truck but I dont want it to ride ruff. it rides like a cadillac now...I had my 96 lowered and it rode like a go cart ( handled good, but rode bad )
thanks
Dave

whatever you do, go with a good kit. don't cut the springs or buy anything cheap. the flip kit should ride just like stock just lower with a few clearance issues. or the ground force or eibach spring/leaf kits that ride a little firmer with clearance issues if you got lower than 2/3 or maybe 3/4. clearance issue being the room between the frame and axle if you tow heavy or alignment issues if you drop more than 2 in the front. i have heard some had luck aligning with a 3in drop using factory bolts. get good shocks/struts to match the drop also.. that is probably more important than the type of drop as it determines how much effort is put into keeping the wheels planted and the vehicle under control. i went with the eibach 2/3 with 2inch drop shackles and the eibach shocks/struts and havent looked back.

Stealth, I like that kinda ride too for short distance's but Ive been useing my truck for trips and me and the wife like the smoother ride for long distance..we just drove 8000 miles in 14 days soooooo I would like it a little smooth but I like the lowered look much better
