For a couple dollars, buy some 3/8 heater hose, slide it on the coil bottom and top, and it'll lift your rear over half an inch and I guarantee it's cheaper than the spacers. Had to do it to my 3rd gen camaro which has a similar suspension setup in rear.

I noticed that the parts you're using come from different manufacturers. I see that DJM sell "complete kits". What made you decided on using Belltech springs instead of the ones available from DJM? Also, Maxtrax and Belltech kits don't require the control arm and sway bar to be relocated (they only have shock extenders). Is this a necessary step that yields better control/ride? Thanks in advance.

For the front of mine and the strut spacer. Per the chart I used 1-10mm for 2 inches. It looks like you may of done the same, it you were shooting for 3.5 inches. Just wanted to clear that up. Also on mine with the 5305 springs that I used, I had to get a tubular panhard bar to clear the stock exhaust as its 3.5 inches.

Great video and instructions, much appreciated. I have a 2008 4x4 Avalanche with autoride and don't like how the front is higher than the back. To keep things manageable (have not done much work on cars) would be happy to just drop front. Do I understand it right that I could keep everything stock (autoride) just by using a drop spindle? And would it be better in my case to use 2509 instead of 2511 spindle you used? Thanks..

@TWAMotorsports 5 жыл бұрын
Thank you. Yes you need the 2509 spindle which is for a 2" only drop. No can also keep autoride but may have to shorten the rod on the sensor.

I want to hook the stock air ride back up. I will remove the springs on the front. My question is can I use the Beltech 4230 springs in the back. You really do a good job on your videos.

I replaced my magnaride leaky stock shocks with Arnott SK-2954 strut for the front and AS m-2700 for the rear along with a bypass resistor. My question is if I lower it can I still use my new shocks or do I have to replace them with the shocks you used for the kit? I’m sure those new shocks would be shorter wouldn’t they? Hopefully I can use the ones I bought. Thanks for any recommendations

Excellent video. Questions for you, if the vehicle was lowered by a previous owner, where to begin in identifying how low, what kit, etc? The ride is harsh AF so I'd like to keep the look, but make it a tad more compliant; you'd think I was on 22's with 20 series rubber...I'm not. I was thinking maybe just a shock/strut replacement but who knows if the kit was installed properly in the first place? Not sure where to begin in purchasing the proper replacement shock/struts.
