2014+ Lowering / Drop Kits


Recommended Posts

I installed my two in drop yesterday on my 14. The hardest part of the whole thing was folding over the bed seam to get the bolt out. If I didn't have to do that it would have been about an hour job. To make the job easier I cut the lip on one side of the bolt so it would go back easier. I have the 1/2 in block but the alignment holes didn't fit and it didn't lay flat. LTZ Tom what did you do to make it fit? He is the before and after.

Before and After 2" Rough Country drop shackles. I may remove the blocks to go a bit lower ?? I thought that it would sit a bit lower but may get used to it.

Also 2nd pic has weathertech mudflaps.

Dont do it. It is perfect the way it stands right now. The two inch drop shackle gives the truck a perfect stance. Leaves the back just 1 inch higher than the front. I have the same drop on my truck. I was going to take the blocks out too but loved the stance like it is. Here is a pick I took after the new exhaust.

Just ordered 3/5 DJM kit with upper and lower control arms, rear pinon adjustable flip kit and rear shocks.

I installed a djm 4/6 drop when i had my 02 sierra, it rode great and the control arms allowed it to get a good alingnment, no issues like with this POS I got now.

Anyone using a rear flip kit have problems with the rear wheels centering in the rear fenders? From what I have read is that all of the kits for the 14's are using the same parts that were for the previous generation trucks and the rear flip kit drop in the rear pushes the rear wheels towards the rear of the fender opening about 1". The only kit that doesnt do this is mcgaughys.
