Just did 2/4 yesterday on a '00 z71 ecsb. Keys, shackles, ! OEM lift block, Belltech shocks. Can't wait to get spindles, hangers and notch so I can go 4-6.
Alignment is within factory specs, drives good, and rides like stock until you hit big bumps.

I have a 2/4 but love the 4/6 look. I think where you live is what determines it at the end (roads). Oh and if I went any lower would have to back my truck in every time I park to clear intercooler.My buddy has 4/6 but some speed bumps here has to hit them in an angle and watch those dips in driveways.

i just lowered my 2wd SS 2/4 lastnight. mcgaughys spindles/hangers/shackles.
it sits exactly 1.5 inchs lower in the rear. so its riding cali bad. and also with only one groove left on bumpstop.. and the bracket removed from the bumpstop its 3/4 a inch from axle.
its like i did a 2/5 or something. i wanna order some keys for the front but dont wanna ruin allignment specs. also i need a c-notch bad.
and my steering went to ****. i have to back up to park a lot now.
so with spindles and drop keys ill get a good allignment spec right?
