New 4/6 Drop kit 00-06 tahoe

[NORCAL SS]

Installed this on another customers truck. I'll get pics once he sends them to me.

dropPed the truck 4 inches in front and rear 5 15/16 from stock.

MUST CUT OF REAR BUMPSTOP BRACKETS!! Also i would recommened airlift helper bags.

If you want a softer ride go with the belltech street performance shocks if you want a stiffer ride go with the shocks in the kit in link

Looking forward to pics of this. How is the ride with that much of a drop on the rear. Thinking about going lower in rear. How come not the tbss djm springs? What's the different between the two?

 

[NORCAL SS]

These sit lower and for those that want the back lowered at the most where a c notch is not required.

Ride in rear with the DJM shocks is not bad at all.

These springs sit about 1/2 inch lower than the DJM TB Springs.

What is the stock height of a tahoe? Right now my rear is at around 32.5 how much lower woud these sit. I have beltech 5305 springs. Would these drop it another 1.5 inches. .5 for the beltech ones and i think a inch for the djm ones. so combined or is that wrong?

When will just the 6" springs be available to buy on their own? Didn't see them on the tbssowners site and I did just buy put in the tb springs and Djm hardware kit and am really happy with them but my front is still a little lower with drop spindles and keys.

6" springs wont be avil because I didnt have enough demand for it.

if you want the rear to be lower on the djm springs you can cut 1 loop no diff in ride will come down also

hey tony by cutting one loop off the tb springs how much more will that bring the rear down.? ?

 

[NORCAL SS]

due to the winding on the tb coils cut about 1.5 will do a 1 inch drop

Tony, are you considering 1 coil as the original winding that is flat for seating? I cut 3/8 of a coil for an extra inch but I didn't count the coil until it started spiraling downward...This was on the DJM TB springs. I just don't want someone to take their springs out and cut way too much off. There is only about 3" or less from axle to frame w/o bump stops so it is definitely getting into the C-notch territory. I have bottomed out but it was on a fairly large bump. The ride quality hasn't suffered at all.

before you do any cutting MAKE SURE to measure how much shock you have left in there. You dont watn to cut to much where the spring will move around when tires come off the ground.

im talking about from the seated part and usually i cut 1/2 loop have customer drive around then go more if needed. 1.5 in rear with the djm 1800 shocks and in front spindles and 2 inch drop keys it sat nice.
