Want to lower more in the rear.

I have the FRPP/Ground Force 1/2 lowering kit. I am happy with the front of the car but the back needs to be lowered a little more. Do you think the belltech hangers should give me the stance Im looking for?

Thanks

I have bell tech 2" drop all around. It def enhanced the stance. It has a nice little rake too. I sometimes think I should drop it lower, but I'm not sure how practical it would be. It was formerly a daily driver and may be again. Could not get it in the driveway if it was lower in front...

if you lower the rear more doesnt that mean the front end will come upp a little bit? kind of like a see-saw....if one side goes down....the other side comes up??

Hotchkis rear leafs will take care of you. They lower the back 2" more...

Will the leafs give me an extra 2.5" over the2" I already have? I think 2.5" might be too much? Has anyone lowered their truck 1.5" in the fron and 4.5" in the back?

The leafs and shackles will give you 3 to 4 inch drop. If that is too much you can adjust up on the shackle. If you need more you will have to go will another front hanger...
