Should i drop my `04 Limited??

[michaelinchains]

i have the opportunity to get a new set of Eibach lowering springs for $230 shipped..not a bad price,these kits usually fetch around $300 atleast.im staying OEM in the wheel dept. for now,but i think these will look **** on the truck & help it handle better

i believe that will get you 1.6/1.8 drop...may or may not be noticeable...make sure you check to ensure you dont have air suspension like i do...if so...more work to be done to drop it...FYSA...

4/4 drop up the ass no questions asked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my truck sits with a 3" gap when the air is out...factory air suspension...

A spring/strut expy sits different compared to a air suspension expy.

 

[michaelinchains]

my truck has advancetrac so no air suspension on mine..im pretty sure i read somewhere that no expy equipped w/ the advancetrac option also has air ride.

I say go for it, nice small drop. You can also add some sway bars and youll notice a great improvemet.

Mendoza not everyone wants to slam their family suv. Remember the lower you go the worse your car is gonna handle.

i wanted to lower but i think ill invest in the swaybars instead

hows the camber on the lowered exp? i hate tire camber ware

Hey mine road pretty decent with the blistein struts. Mine wasn't a family suv anyway. Lol. It was just for me and my girlfriend.


As far as camber wear, if you install the kit with no modifications then you can get your camber back into spec with the eibach camber kit or the rockauto kick.

sway bar kit will have to wait,alittle too pricey

As far as camber, the Eibachs shouldnt effect it that much, but I would still get an alignment. Eibach makes the drop where you can still keep the factory camber arms. It would look good with those 20's you got

 

[michaelinchains]

well i pulled the trigger & bought `em..hopefully sometime in the next week or so ill get the Eibach`s & my new door speakers installed pics to come

i was going to do the belltech drop but i backed out at the last minute, i just realized i spent around 1200 on her just last month the remaining items from emendoza's nice ass truck, brakes (rotors and pads), tires, alignment, and more misc stuff. but it is the 1st of a new month!

question.. if i did the belltech 2/2 drop and sway bars will i need the camber kit?? i want to make sure i order everything before i go and have them slap on everything and do an alignment one shot one kill. thanks in advance

I dont know if the kit brings it or not. I would call Belltech and ask if its needed. I dont know if you can use the factory arms within specs with a 2" drop.
