i understand people want to look no problem. Just feedback on the forum people can see the kit I sell has great results then you have a shop that sells the other part number kit and the customer is not happy at all and I dont even offer that kit because I know it doesnt ride as well at all.

i found all of those part numbers except for the 5305 springs. they show they are for 00-04.

the only ones i found for 08 are belltech 23323.

also, my main reason for lowering is the replace my worn shocks and struts, and i didnt see any recommended with shocks and struts

i dont want to spend an arm and a leg either

the 5305 works on all year trucks its the same rear design just the 5305 springs are the best riding thats why I offer them. the 23323 is the one the customer put on his truck recently a shop sold him and sits higher and doesnt ride as good at all.

if your looking to replace all the shocks the kit below does that.

Lowers the front 2 inches and rear 3-4 inches and includes new rear shocks

Pro -- Go with what Tony recommends. Use the spring he recommends. I have them in my '09, and they ride better than stock.

so everyone agrees that a 2/3 drop is low enough?

the rear is adjustable 3-4 inches and for what your set up on the 2/3-4 will be perfect and will replace all the front/rear shocks

I have the 2/3 and like it but I think my rear is not setup right though sits kinda high for 2/3 and it was from groundforce.

Also Tony what is the best shocks for a 2/3 kit need to replace all mine. have a 115k on the originals

Sorry to but in, but I'm following this thread because I'll either be doing 26's or 24's and will be lowering.

I just wanted to say I went to Tony with my 04 Esky and the day I purchased my Trailblazer SS I purchased his kit and has been nothing but the best fitment and customer service. On the SS he even grinds a little off specifically for the SS's out of his own time.
