Best 2/4 drop...for my application??????
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.

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.
