so how does it feel with the belltech springs in?

The ride is perfect. Nice and smooth without the bounce i had with the 4 inch spring. I'll give the shock extenders a try tomorrow and see if that improves the ride more, but i'm already pleased with it how it is. I'l get those measurements to you tomorrow tony. Appreciate all the help on this!

no problem. This is the reason I dont use any rear tahoe spring from djm on these trucks. The belltechs ride that much better and not the new part number they made but the older 00-12 5305 springs. They sit low also.

Definitely the best riding spring i've tried thus far, and i'm on spring number 4! With how low these sit with the spacer, i'm thinking in the future i'll try going with the full drop in the back and adding a 1 inch belltech strut in the front and get it close to a 3/5 like some people have done on here. Suspension problems solved.

Tony, i took the measurements today, and the front sits at 34 1/4, and the rear 34 3/4 with 305/35/24. It looks pretty level, that half inch in the rear isnt too noticeable. I can always cut a 1/2 inch off the spacer to get the rear to 34 1/4, but i think i'll leave it for now. I don't remember the DJM rear measurement, but with that it sat roughly a half inch lower than than the front. Ill get some pics up after i get outside and wash it
