Hands down I recommend McNaugtys Drop spindles I had the Eibach Pro Kit went through hubs and bushing a lot faster. Now I don't and you will have to swap your shocks and nothing else. Also I use elderbrock IAS shocks there awesome IMO, had the KYB just not stiff enough.

basically it goes BELLTECH-MGAUGHYS-DJM i wouldn't recommend DJM there stuff is pretty cheesy IMO. im running all BELLTECH on my truck.
dont do LCA do either 2-inch drop springs up front or 2-inch drop spindles i made that mistake and my truck is very bouncy since i still have the stock springs ill be installing a set of hotchkis springs which arnt even made anymore

I heard the Hotchkis were good. Even though they aren't technically made anymore, there are a few little companies that still have a few sitting around in stock I see. They also make 4" drop leaf springs as well. Would it be better to just go ahead and change out the whole rear leafs or just do the shackle/hanger drop for the 4" rear drop? I want this truck to feel a lot more glued to the road.

Are these kits pretty much the same for EC and RC trucks and just raise them up differently based on their weight, or are they actually different components for the different size trucks?
