Revised Belltech Trailblazer Coils and airlift helper bags, should help immensely. I may drop the front down a hair more if these are lower than the current belltech tb coils, everything should be in this weekend.

Looking forward to pics and review on then. Might be next purchase to get a little lower. Do you think helper bags are necessary for them?

I don't have helper bags in the current belltech coils and they bottom out on themselves occasionally. These have a higher springrate which can be increased more via the helper bags, my 5305 coils rode great with the bags at 10 psi.

Are you planning on cutting 1 coil off it? Interested on how that would be? Either way, can't wait to hear how it turns out n rides?

MAX WRONG HELPER BAG

Pm me if you want the right number.

ive been cutting these same belltech springs for months now here is a pic of the one set ive done

heres were you cut it

level off top

and the helper bag inside you will get about a 6-6.5 inch drop. Your bag is MUCH to tall

When the truck comes down there is less then 6 inches of space and in turn your helper bags will bind and cause ride to be worse.



also the street performance belltechs with this set up ride much better. the 5100 bilsteins are jarring.


now on the cutting of the coils ive cut 2.5 loops off you will need the 18.5 extended shocks.
