'Belltech Nitro Drop 2 Shocks' way too ROUGH!!
I have an 00SingleCabSilvy and want to put a 2-4 drop on it before that I just installed a brand new set of drop 2 shock from Belltech.The newest and most improved yet, the salesman from stylin concepts said they're an awesome ride and night and day over stock. Let me just say I can't drive with anything in my cup holder or else it will be all over me and the inside of my truck. The shocks are extremly rough and It feels like I have no suspension at all. I'm taking them off and searching for new ones. Any suggestions?

Wait, if I read the post correctly, you say that you want to install a 2/4 drop but installed the drop shocks first?? Did you lower the truck or just install the shocks...am I missing something?? 
If you installed drop shocks on the factory ride height, the ride will not feel normal, and you may damage a shock...

I sold my 2" drop coils but kept my 2" drop shocks and 3 months later I blew one(surprise surprise).

yeah those drop shocks are meant to ride great at a certain height. thats why they have stock, 2",4", and 6" drop shocks that are meant for those lengths. drop the truck 4 inches before you put those shocks on.
