Today I installed Belltech 2212FF shocks out back and I am loving the difference in handling! Whoever owned this truck before me definitely installed some type of leveling kit, as there isn’t as much rake as there would’ve been as a stock Silverado. Out back the handling was a little bumpy, but with the new 2212FF shocks - I can really tell the difference!

Now I know (or at least I’ve heard) that when you drop the rear suspension, the front end will stiffen up. I can definitely feel stiffness in the front end. I believe the drop the previous owner did was 3” due to the absence of the factory block. Will coil-overs alleviate any of the front end stiffness I am experiencing? If so, what do you recommend? It would be cool if they even had a shock that I can use to drop the front a little even. Thanks for any advice! Once again, looking for coil overs for the front, as it’s been stiffened up by the rear being dropped (leveled.)

Coil overs are pretty sweet in general. I have them on my NBS and they work fantastic, just need a little tuning to be perfect.

I have front drop struts on my truck with the factory spring. It rides just fine to me. Can do anywhere from .5 to 3in drop in the front. Got them from Mcgaughys.
