Jermaine Dow Posted November 9, 2019 Posted November 9, 2019 Ride quality is pretty close to stock if I let the air out of the back to much things will get a little bumpy.

Close to stock, so does it mean that it rides softer or stiffer than stock with the IHC drop kit ? I had 5/7 Belltech and Mcgaughys kit on my last NNBS consisted of spindles, struts, shocks, flip kit and shock extender and it never rode close to stock. Never gonna go with the route of altering struts and coil again. I've heard lowering the front with control arms is the best way of having stock ride feel, till ball joints fail especially within a few 100-1000 miles. I want to do the 3/5 IHC but a little hesitant due to past ride quality. Edited November 9, 2019 by 808 HI
ItsDooomz Posted November 9, 2019 Posted November 9, 2019 How deep can you go in the back before a flip kit? Do they make a 3" shackle? I was thinking about 2 inch spindles and shackles in the rear. 2/2, 2/3. I did a 2/4 drop on my 2018 with flip kit and 2" lowering springs, Im wondering if spindles would be a better option? The 2018 2/4 drop on 20's The new truck at stock ride height on 22's

I'd say a bit stiffer but again when I let to much air out of the helper bags it rides a little bumpy but honestly I can barely tell the difference. Edited November 9, 2019 by Jermaine Dow

The 2018 2/4 drop on 20's The new truck at stock ride height on 22's I'm not sure on that. I know if you use the Reklez drop they provide spindles instead of control arms. Here is mine stock on 22s as well. Edited November 9, 2019 by Jermaine Dow
ItsDooomz Posted November 24, 2019 Posted November 24, 2019 I want ahead and put the 2" lowering shackles on the back and it set the truck perfectly level empty. After I put in the tonneau cover, decked storage system and loaded it with tools it dropped it another inch and a half so the front end was higher. No airbag manufacturer makes a kit that works on lowered 2019+ trucks so I did the belltech 2 in drop spindles. It sits real nice now with a half inch rake, when I put the race trailer on the back it levels it out and tows like a dream. This thing actually rides and drives better than stock, I'm really impressed. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk 1

Reason so is that I have lowering shackles set at 2" as well but looking to lower the front a bit for a slight rake. The mid pic makes the ass look a bit higher or it may be the missing fender liner that makes it look the way it does. Edited December 19, 2019 by 808 HI 1
