How should I set this up?

[White07Tahoe]

I bought a used lowering kit from a member on this site it came with:
2" Beltech Drop Spindles
Adjustable Beltech Front Struts
DJM Rear Hardware Kit
4" Beltech Rear Drop Coils (no spacer for 3" drop)
Beltech Rear Drop Shocks
Beltech Rear Shock Extenshions
Beltech Rear Bumpstops
Helper bags in rear springs

I don't know a whole lot about lowering kits, but I do know that this is several kits combined. So I have a few questions for the experts:
How low, with these parts, can I possibly go?
What is the lowest I can go, with these parts, and keep a good/stock type ride?
Should I use everything or only select pieces?
I plan on running stock LTZ 20's on 275/55/20, I shouldn't have any problems with this right?
Also keep in mind I do tow a boat every once in a while, that is where the helper bags come into play.
I would like to be able to run a 3/5 drop but I think i will only be able to get it down to a 3/4 with these parts, what do yall think?
Any pics with similar setups would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for any advice!

if your on 275 55 20 i would do

1) front spindles nothing else
2) rear belltech coil and buy the belltech 1 inch spacer
3) rear shock extenders
4) rear belltech shocks
5) rear djm hardware kit


the lowest you can go in front is 4 inches over stock 2 inches being spindles *** another 1-2 with drop struts but i would invest in camber bushings.

in rear you can put the entire kit in and then cut the dead coils on the belltech 5305 which ive done many times no issues. the dead coils are the ones that touch eachother when the truck is on the ground.

now saying that in rear if you have the 5305 coils and you put the entire kit on and cut the bumpstop bracket off and cut the dead coils in the rear you can get a 6 inch drop out of it no issues which ive done.

THe main thing is make sure you dont cut to much of the spring where the springs would pop out if you lift the truck off the ground.

so you know you can cut 2-3 coils off with no real ride change on the 5305 since the coils are all dead when a load is placed on them.


in rear the springs will do 4 inches no problem.

I ran a 275/55/20 until my new 22s came in with this exact setup with no issues. There is only two "kits" there, the DJM hardware kit and the original Belltech kit and I had added the struts to go lower in the front. Just install it all and then see if you want to go even lower. I highly recommend the free travel mod.

Thanks for the advice, I am going to put on everything, I'm sure I wont be disappointed. What is the free travel mod?

Removing the rear bump stops and bump stop brackets. If there is not a sticky do a search for free travel mod.
