Lowering Questions

I have a 02 SuperCrew and I need to lower it 2-4. What's the best brand you guys can recommend and what parts should it bring?

I'm clueless and getting frustrated...

Thanks!!

check out thesuspensionsource.com everynow and then they have some pretty good deals, and belltech seems to be a pretty popular brand.

depends on your budget, but

for more of an entry level, belltech or ground force
for a middle of the road price eibach
and for top notch go hotchkis


Im using DJM, eibach and ground force on mine

@TSS,
I saw on your site the 3" belltech lowering blocks and the 2/3 spirngs. I just replaced all the shock on the truck. Would I need to get new shocks? What I want is at least a 2/4 maybe 2/3 drop.

Thanks

I know the feeling.Just went through same thing with 2008.Went with T S S ,they hooked me up with Bell Tech all the way.I would suggest you phone them.Make a list of questions and ask,easier on phone. They were a big help.
Hopes this helps,Good luck.Jack

lowering blocks wont work on your truck, you can probably get away with only buying new shocks for the rear

Recently dropped my 03 supercrew 2/4. Front is 2" Belltech pro drop coils, JLP shackles, and 03 Lightning leafs. Get some coils off ebay or other vendors, JLP shackles that go 2, 2.5", 3" that you can buy directly from them. You can then get Lightning Leaf springs if you can find them (check Lightningrodder.com and post a WTB in the GEN 2 section). If you dont get leafs, then get 2" hangers which are a PITA to install, but youll be at 4" in the rear with shackles on the 2" setting. and BTW im still on the STOCK shocks (80k) with the drop and I have 0 issues. Im also selling the truck in 5 months...but PM me if you have any questions. I just went through allllllllll of this and i have no problem helping you out.

If you decide on the Lightning rear leaf springs, as migdaddy suggests, I might be interested in your stockers depending on mileage, condition and price.
