3-5 is definitely doable, clearance issues depend on tire size and wheel offset. I have 24's on 295-35-24 tires and the only rubbing I get is at full turn on the fender liner. I have a 3.5-5.5 drop using the belltech trailblazer rear springs and spindles and a coil re locater up front. I also shortened my ride height sensors and the truck still rides great, and no warning lights have turned on yet.

What wheels are those and what offset are you running?

those are the KMC Brodie 24x9.5 with 30mm offset. Just found it in my old notes when we were talking about what wheels would work with the rear 5+ kit when he was still running stock tires on it.

Nice. Do you happen to sell just a set of rear 5" or 6" lowering springs?

You can't just do springs. Will need shocks/extenders/endlinks/bumpstops/trailing arm relocators alsi. It will bind if not using those

I have all but just want to lower it a bit more. The springs are a 4" drop now. Do you sell just 5" lowering springs for the rear? The factory upper and lower spring seats are still in also..
