2014+ Lowering / Drop Kits

SIRed · May 4, 2017

Well I went with a 2/4 drop anyway bit I can get another inch or so lower in the rear if I want to. I love the way it sits and handles.

Damn what lift kit you got on that thing?

Just kidding. Looks good

LOL maybe still high compared to yours but it is a HUGE difference to me. There was a 2in leveling kit on the front.

It looks good. But wait a few months. You'll want more

That depends on the arms is has though. Because 16.5 they switched to the avv arm. And the control arms didn't even fit in my truck right. So I had to get spindle and strut

He has the stamped steel arms. I have pictures. He could even just get the 2" lower arm for avv arms but after my djm experience. I say just grab the lowering strut

If you're having alignment problems its easier and cheaper to press in offset control arm bushings. You'll put the offset side towards the frame of the truck and it'll push the upper arm out to give you more positive camber. It got mine from -2.5* to about -0.8* on each side.

Just food for thought. I paid 90 bucks for a set of bushings and pressed them in.

So I've been reading through this topic and its a little confusing. I have a 17' CCSB 4x4 and I would like to do a 3/5 drop. I dont want to have to install a c-notch and I have stamped UCA's. What would be the best way to go about this without making it completely ride like crap. There are so many options but what is going to give me the best ride and not cause me driveline or suspension problems in the future from parts wearing out prematurely?
