2014+ Lowering / Drop Kits

kzinge1 · April 16, 2015

Removed the factory lift blocks from my Double Cab Sierra. Had WAY too much rake from the factory. I really like the results. Dropped the rear about 1.5" and still gives me enough rake to not squat too far down when towing/hauling. No vibration issues either, aside from what it had from the factory, lol!

That is one good looking truck. I've had 3 rc trucks & I really like the look of them lowered. Only thing is a family & rc trucks don't mix.

One of the reasons I got a RC is my daughter was 14 at the time and well... she is fixen to start driving and if we all take a trip it will be in the Wife's Pilot. So I kinda have my toy all to myself unless the wife wants to treat me to Dinner and of course I drive her.

That's only with 3/5 drop? That looks good!

3.5 in the front , flip kit and lift hangers in the rear , which is 5 inches , im about 1.5 inches high in the rear from being level . going to see if it settles any and add some assist bags and bring it down a little more . rides awesome so far . install was a pain in the a%* tho .. I think mcgaughy's needs to work on their instructions a little more and maybe add some pics .

Using Belltech 6401 shackles on a 14 silverado, was there any issue with removing or installing the top bolt do to a weld or something under the bed getting inthe way?? Was it neccessary to lossen the four frame bolts to gain clearance?

I don't remember all the different kits that had a similar issue, but I remember seeing that a lot of people had to hammer fold over part of a weld seam for a clearance issue. It may be those same bolts that you're dealing with. I had a shop lower mine, so I'm not exactly sure if they had to do anything similar. Sorry I can't help more.
