Question Question for those with Bell Tech front springs.

How much of a drop did you see with the Bell Tech 4804 front coil springs?

Bell Tech states 1" for the Lightning, but I want to know how much from someone who has them.

Thanks,
Jason

I saw about 1 1/2" drop aswell. Right now I have 2" DJM Shackles, and Belltech 4804 Springs. I have Ground Force Hangers on the way. I think im also gonna go with Western Chasis's Control Arms... get a true 3/4 drop!

My front dropped about 1-1/2" .I put the Belltech Nitro shocks up front. I have the 2" drop shackles in the rear. I'm going to drop the rear 2 more inches than I have to get the rear Belltech Nitro shocks. You need to replace the shocks or your gong to get a bouncy ride.

IMO, Belltech sucks.....
I feel like i'm riding in a freaky bouncy Landcruiser and I have the full kit...It does give the truck a great look but the ride sucks if it's not set up right
