Belltechs.

---------- Post added at 12:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------

But yes they are progressive and have dead coils on top although not as many as far as I know. Because tony is selling some pedders coils with dead loops cut off and they still only drop 3.5-4 inches.

No i hadnt seen that but it makes me even more confident about buying the rear coils.

I have the rear shocks now and I have some mcg spindles shipping to me as we speak.
Then all I need are 4600 struts and pedders rear coils CANT wait

The ride is SOOO much better.

:cheers:
Once you get those Pedders coils you will be really smiling.
Also, for Goodinblack, the Pedders coils are also progressive and pretty much sit on one another like the Belltech coils. But they do ride a whole lot better.

@ GoodInBlack I was just rereading our posts and was noticing you could have been talking about the belltech coils when you asked me if the belltechs were not good in my opinion.
The belltech coils are fine but it could be better im sure they are probably the best coil for a 4 and 5 inch drop but I am only interested in a 3 inch drop which is what pedders offers and I feel that the ride could be even further improved so Im gonna go for it!

and of course you know ill keep the thread up to date.

Thanks for the information Josh and Neo. :Handshake:

Hey Josh, make a note of your turning radius now :think:

Something to compare to, to see how much you lose with the spindles.

I think after Modded you will be the next person to have like 5 different suspension setups on your Tahoe. LOL.

I know you will update the thread, and you know I will be here. :fishing1:

Do you have any creative suggestions on how to document the turning radius?

And jus FYI this will be slow going from here on out. I came into some money lately and it's gone on these parts. Idk when ill get more i won't be working for two weeks.

Took me like 3 days on and off to read through this whole thread. I enjoyed seeing all the beautiful vehicle pictures in the sigs over and over haha. Sorry about all your troubles blazed! Your hoe looks sick though. Can't wait to lower mine come spring!
