Would you say it rides better than any coil shock combo I could put together?

Right now my plan is
Front: stock coil bilstein hd shock mcgs spindle
Rear: pedders coil bilstein shock

I have not ridden in a nnbs that was lowered that way so I can't say for sure.

Blazed...do you not like the Belltech drop combo? Do you have the spindle / coil combo now or coil/coil? I'm sure my autoride helps, but my Belltech 2/3.5 spindle/coil combo rides fairly well for a drop, the 26s on the other hand are kinda harsh lol

I think the belltech spindles and coils are probably fine it's the belltech performance shocks suck complete ass!

Right now it's stock front coil with belltech sp shocks and belltech 5303 and sp shocks.
I hate every bump in the road and I can feel every single ******* one

Yeah I get what you mean...shocks make all the difference in the world, and I'm sure that is the difference maker with my autoride....I'm sure you've talked to Tony about other possible shock combos?

sucks to hear man, hopefully Modded can help you get a nice setup figured out....btw I love the white on white tahoe look. Before I got the Esky that was my plan, to get a white Tahoe and white it out. Here is a photoshop I did of how I planned to fix it up, may be some inspiration to you like it was me :)

Fender work? Install it yourself it can be done over a weekend.

I'm not sure he still has it for sale but ya I was happy with the kit.

Oh I know I can easily slap on the Kelderman kit in a day. I meant fender work as in trimming the inside of the front wheel wells so that the tires do not bounce off of them constantly while at a low height.

Your forgot extenders.
Get the kit you mentioned. A bagged setup would ride very smooth, but is has its downfalls.
It can start to leak air at a random time and cause issues. That is not good for a daily driver car.

for sure, definitely pros and cons to air ride. I daily drove my integra bagged for about 2 years and luckily only got stranded once! I had manual PSI gauges and one of the gauge hoses blew and dropped a corner. Luckily my buddy was with me and I made him hold him thumb wrapped tighly around the hose all the way home just constantly hitting the up switch to keep it driveable lol
