need help... i have a 3" drop but its more like a 4" drop.

[lynxnova]

3" springs with spacers in, rides to low. It looks and feels like its 4" drop rather than 3"drop.... When I have. My kids in the truck the bumb stop hits when I hit a small bump. I need to raise it an 1" more, how can I do that? Can I add another spacer? Thruck stands like its even on the front and rear.... I don't understand Why is that, I installed the 2"-3"/4 " belltechkit from Tony, with. the spacers in and. It sits to low....

You haven't said what kind of truck this is on.

is the rear sitting lower than the front right now?

I wonder if he has autoride , and do you have to do a free travel mod to prevent the bumpstop form hitting?

Mine sits exactly even too, which IMO makes it look lower in the back. Did you cut the bumpstops like Tony suggests? I haven't had any probs there, even with four adults and a fully loaded trunk this past weekend. You can buy different sized spacers on ebay...Sumo runs a 2" spacer and likes it.

Just throw some spacers in until you get the height you want.

If this is the 739SP kit... I ran into the same "bumpstop always bottoming out issue" and the solution was to simply remove the bumpstops altogether.

I have a 2010. Chevy Tahoe non. Autoride.....I did not cut the bumbstops, and that's a good thing because if I did the rear would def. Be sitting lower than The. Front and I don't like that look......it looks great now but not practical when theres people. In the back....I would post pic later on today when I get home..... If I.could raise the rear 1" more would be good.....the springs are 5304 series from.belltech.....I have the spacers in the bottom part of the springs... Can I put a second set on top of the springs also?

If you cut the bumpstops it would not make your truck any lower unless the bumpstops are the only thing holding the truck at that height in which case you are way lower then 4" anyways.
