So, i have about 75miles on the springs and they have lowered the truck about 1/2" from were i was prior with the DJM 5" springs. Right now i sit at 32.75" inches from the floor to the fender. Will need to let settle for a while before we get a accurate measurement.

The drive is so much better now. My wife took the truck to work today cause i had to work on my moms car, and she said that she can really tell a difference. You can tell in the pic with the coils side by side, that the DJM 5" yukon coils (blue) are a lot thicker as far as the winding in the coil goes.

I dont know why the video came out the way it did from Izz. He said that was the way it loaded to youtube.

actaully thats my wifes trailblazer ss in the video.

No spring isolators and the ends of the trailblazer springs are tighter which is no problems over the past 8 years of using trailblazer springs on my customers trucks.

shocks are djm ****** shocks which work great with the trailblazer spring he also has the djm shock extenders and will be doing the djm swaybar kit.

Actually, i dont have the shock extenders. That was another ball dropped by stylin ***** i mean trucks. So just the links this week.

And yea there 22's. I have them on a 305/40 nitto tire. Had them for almost two years now. First was the drop, then wheels. The video doesnt do any justice. Those streets were hella narrow and hes pitchin the ass end like its nothing. The one scene were you see the steering wheel just go crazy at 1:40ish, there was a PG&E truck double parked on my side and i thought he was going to clip it, but corrects it right before. Maybe some vids after the show sunday tony?
