I would say look into getting some spindles or lower control arms and last resort is do torsion keys Quote Wouldnt be thehoe92 without teh purple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire2k6 Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 What type of suspension do you have at the moment mate? Springs, Leafs, Torsion bar etc? If its a torsion bar I wouldn't recommend lowering it, it will only cause you pain... Quote Live life to the full... Then TURN THAT BITCH UP!

sphinxbccp Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 my friend has a mountaineer with a torsion bar on the front and we did a 2" drop in front and 3" in the rear, this was probably 6 months ago, no problems so far Quote Build log: Click Feedback: http://www.stevemead...xbccp-feedback/ 03 Chevy Blazer - IPad Air 2 - ALPINE Head Unit - 4 DC XL 18s - 2 DC 3.5k - ALPINE TYPE R 5.25 COMP - 3 ALPINE TYPE R 6.5 COMPs - DC 175.4 - DC HO Alt - D3400 - 4 XP3000s - KNU 0ga - 60 SqFt Damp Pro Lots more...
