I have an 05 Sierra ecsb. I have 22's on the way with 265/40/22 on them. I want to lower the truck...2/4 is what I was thinking. I need to be able to pull my car around which is 3400# + trailer. I just towed with it today stock and the thing was hitting the damn bumpstops allready!! I don't wanna C-notch it because I don't wanna have problems with the dealer and warranty. I want to get the 59103 helper bag kit. I can get anything summit sells at a very good price through my work. So I can get Hothkis, DJM ,Belltech and air-ride

1. which kit would you reccomend?
2. will the helper bags fit without a notch?
3. do I need shocks...if so which kind?
4. the helper bags don't come with a tank or compressor, what should I get?

I searched through 13 pages tonight and got some questions answered but it is best to hear it right from you guys.

Thanks Kevin

 

I love the DJM 2/4 with lower control arms. Other on here like the McGrautys(spelling) and Hothkis(spelling) also.
I don't know the part# but I have Air lift slam air helper bags for 2 to 4 drop, no notch needed.

Shocks are a must. I have toxic, good for 30 bucks each. Toxic,belltech, and djm are all very close to each other. The only other ones I have used on my last truck was koni. At 130 a shock it is hard to spend that much, but they were really really nice.

With my bags I got Air lift load controller 2 on board air compressor. This is the best thing I have every added to a lowered truck.

 

anyone else?

 

Hotchkis and DJM both make good parts, but Hotchkis is the better of two imo.
Try shorter bumpstops or cut down your factorys. With a 2-4 drop you'll need lowered shocks valved for the drop, Doetsch Tech, Edelbrock or Bilstein are good choices. If you are gonna tow then get the slammed air helper bags.

 

didn't you get beat by a girl????

 

Once!....just once ....she didn't post the video of me jumping the light and beating her the second run.
