Thought this might be a good idea with so many asking about drops...if it doesn't catch on it'll just fade away...if it works maybe sticky it?
This idea is to get a collection of information from everyone on their respective setups with pictures so anyone looking for pics/results/ideas/etc can easily see what has been done & is possible. Edit & update your post as you see fit & as you make changes.
Here's my setup & a possible template to work off of...
Model/Year/2x/4x/AWD:
- 2003 Tahoe LT 4x4
Advertised drop:
- 3"/5.5"
Fender height front/rear:
-31.75/32.25
Front:
- LCA's : DJM 3"
- UCA's : stock
- Spindles : stock
- Sway Bar : BellTech
- Tie Rods : Custom 1" DOM w/ 3/4" chromoly teflon lined heims
- T-bars : stock
- T-bar keys : stock
- Shocks : DJM
- Steering : KYB stabilizer
Rear:
- UTA : C3Fab adjustables
- LTA : C3Fab adjustables w/ DJM relocator kit
- Springs : DJM 4" Trailblazer
- Panhard : Spohn adjustable
- Sway Bar : BellTech w/ DJM end links
- Shocks : BellTech
- Air Assist : None
Wheels & Tires:
- Wheels : 22" Boss 330's
- Tires : Nitto 275/40/22's
Considered upgrades:
- DJM uppers to ease UCA balljoint angles. Noticed occasionaly popping from stock upper joint. Otherwise, nothing.
Brief impressions of setup:
Overall, the ride is firm but not stiff. The suspension has a progressive rate feel to it. Normal driving it's really
tame but it takes corners incredibly with little to no body roll & my confidence is gone long before any talking from
the tires.
Pics:
Good idea? Bad idea?
