Here are some pics of the 3/5 drop from Tony with TB coils.
305/35/24. Pulled the Air bags out and went this route. The ride is great. Front is 31.75" and rear is 32.75". If your on the fence thinking about this kit I would recommend it. Tony was great to deal with everything shipped fast and arrived when he said.

Sick man! Im gonna do that on my YUKO soon!

FMaybe a dumb question, just wandering what needs to be done if you tow a car trailer occasionally? That is with the 3-5 drop.

thats my biggest hold up with going 3-5. Im gonna be buying the 2-3/4 beltech kit and seeing how I like that drop. towing my atv's on the 14ft single axle landscape trailer isnt what im afraid of...its loading up the car on the big dual axle car trailer where I dont wanna be rubbing.

One of my customers has a 2006 trailblazer ss and tows fine with the 5 inch rear kit. We added the airlift helper bags and there is no issue at all. This is the truck on 305 35 24s.

Hey NORCAL, been meaning to get ahold of you. I have been looking at nelson's denali almost every day. That drop is sick! I see everyone one on here has the 24'' wheel set up. I stuck with 20'' with a 275/55 tire just because I tow my minitruck to events.

Now my question budd is.... I WANT my drop to look like Nelson's denali. I got an 04 YUKON(4x4) that pulls an alluminum 20' flatbed trailer.

You recommend the 3/5 drop,no spindles and the the airlift helper baggs when i tow? Shave bumpstops or do the freeride? 5/7 drop would be too low to tow with and the 20's might rub? I have aftermarket airshocks in the truck right now. Keeps truck nice and level when we are all loaded up heading to the show.
SORRY sooooooo long winded.....

I planned on calling you this week,but my semi broke down

yeah the 3/5 and you add the helper bags you will be fine. IM sure we have more tongue weight towing a trailblazer ss that has his drag wheels/gas and tools on the front of the trailor then you do and with the helper bags its fine.
