Ive been looking all over and I can't seem to find anything but 1.5" or 2" drops for the front. I installed my rear shackles and now my front sits about a half inch higher than the rear, I think a 1" would set it off nicely. Only 1" coils I found were on ebay, and were a brand ive never heard of. Anyone know of any online stores that carry some 1" front coils? 2003 Silverado ext cab, if it makes a difference.
Thanks!
Thanks!

The only ones I've seen are the Eibach coils which are advertised as 1.5" for the extended cab. I'm not sure which shackles you used, but most have two holes for adjustment. Just my .02 worth.

How about just cutting 1/2 of a coil off of your stock springs. I wouldn't cut coils enough for a 2" or 3" drop but I THINK it will be fine for that small of a drop and heck, it free. Just use a cut-off wheel to cut the coil, not a torch.

I agree with KY BOB. I would try cutting 1/2 a coil off the stock springs. I have gone as far as cutting enough for 3.5" drop and used 3" coils and the ride felt the same.
