ctrow Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 Let me know too, I'm interested along with some rear shock extenders... P.S. I don't need the shackles if that's an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSER Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 Hey guys I called them and they sell a complete front rear kit. 2" drop spindles for the front and a 3" shackel/hanger kit for the rear. If you are thinking of coming to the rally in wichita, I was thinking of seeing if anyone wanted to have the kit installed during the meet. What do you think?

I wont be going to the rally, but I still might be interested in the 2/3 kit. (Still undecided though) -Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACDenali Posted February 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 Well I talked to a guy there and he said they generally don't do GP's. Its not a big deal really. At around $250 for a pair of spindles, I think thats a pretty good price. I am going to order mine Monday I think. As well as some 2 inch drop shackles for my Denali. Im so glad that they have made these spindles for our trucks. Its so aggravating when companies don't think there is a niche market for our kind of trucks. Finally....

BLK6.0HD Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 If you guys just want to lower the front 2'', belltech makes lowering torsion keys. I think they are 130.00 for the pair. They also make the shackles, for about 50.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer the spindles anyday over the keys. But that's my $.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiksilverz71 Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 Ya I have the bell tech torsion bar keys in there right now, but I have a bad wheel lean. I do need to get a alignment, but I don't think it will fix it all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACDenali Posted February 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 How involved are the rear shackle installs? Can basic tools take care of it? Do you need spring compressors or anything like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLK6.0HD Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 How involved are the rear shackle installs? Can basic tools take care of it? Do you need spring compressors or anything like that? All you need are some jackstands and a jack. Put the truck in the air with the stands and use the jack to lift the rearend to get the load off the springs. When the load is off the springs the bolts will come out pretty easy. Hope this helps.

Fun Guy Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 Just did a homemade 2/3 drop on my Avalanche and it is great. McGaughys 2" drop spindles in front and Eibach 3" drop springs in the back. Damn AV handles like a Corvette now! Took this tight 270 degree off-ramp tonight at 50mph and hardly any lean whatsoever! All I think I have left to do suspension-wise is some upgraded sway bars and that will eliminate the little lean that's left... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutank Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 I have the ground force kit already, but I'm going to order the drop spindles. I have pull to the right in the front end. This may fix my problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 That sounds more like a brake or tire problem. I could be wrong, but I don't see how suspension would cause that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
