Roush or Belltech Suspension Your Thoughts

hey guys, i want a new suspension for my lightning, right now i have a 2/2 drop, and i need more drop in the back end, and my front springs have also collapsed, so ride quality sucks.

i'll probably stay w/ the 2in front but i want a 3in rear drop such as the belltech or roush.

what do you guys think and are there any pics handy, i heard that the roush is easier to install but what also the roush is more expensive what are your thoughts?

Eibach springs collapsed? How many miles?

Changing the hangers is a BIATCH in recalling others' comments (Belltech).

>> Roush

see thats the only thing, im concerned about the install of the belltech, does the belltech ride pretty good though?

how much you think a suspension shop will charge to do the rear leafs?

I have the Belltech on my L. The rear was a B!tch to do until I bought a 4" angle grinder to blow the heads off the hanger rivets. The only thing I don't like about it is the *****ty shocks that came with the kit.
