Did you trim the stock bumpstops in the front when you lowered it? I'd try this out and wouldnt do the spindles. If your going any lower then 3" in the back, then i would suggest the trailing are relocaters, but thats just me. Do the shocks, trim the bump stops, and do the shocks and have it re-aligned at a shop that deals with lowered/ lifted trucks.

Don't you have shock extensions? I'd do some of those before any control arm relocators.

I bought shock extenders shortly after I lowered her, they did not fit (the bolt patterns did not line up). So I took them back to the shop that made them and they gave me a new set, those did not work. I brought them back and they would make me new ones, that never happened.

Eventually I just moved on from the idea. Now that I have a couple extra bucks, I want my trucks ride quality to be 100% better if possible.

yea, the local company that made the extenders I have knocked these off... they looked very similar.

I was looking around... Would a JDM Comtroll arm make the front better? or should i just go with the original plan and swap the keys for 2" spindles?


On a side note, I REALLY do not want to change the front height AT ALL!!! I love the front stance a lot, the rear can go a little lower though

Spindles will help the ride but I'd honestly start with bilsteins and see how it drives.
