Don't wanna lose driveability with drop?
#22
I've got a 2004 ECSB. Dropped it 2/4 with McGaughys components (spindles,shackles, hangers), and found that
1)the rear axle was hitting the shortened bump stops too often
2) had a slight vibration on take off from a stop
3) rear shocks were not as effective, so ride suffered
So, I got the McGaughys rear air bag helper kit and shock extenders. By running only 10 pounds in the bags, I added enough space and (air)spring that I no longer tag the frame. The shock extenders have the ride back to stock, and the vibration is gone!
Yes, I WISH I had a 4/6, but I don't want to cut a frame while under warranty and I do use the truck to tow and haul.
Email me (scmerkur@yahoo.com) and I'll send a pic. Can't attach the pics; too big.

i wanted the same thing for my truck. i think i found what i wanted with the eibach 1/1.75 drop kit. i got it pretty cheap and i like the ride and handling of it. take a look and judge for your self.
