I want to do a 4/6 drop. Everyone says Hotchkis improves your handling. I was thinking that I could use Hotchkis springs and McGaughy's spindles to acheive a 4 inch drop in the front. I would probably just do a flip kit in the rear. Will this work?
P.S.- I plan on running 275/45/20, i think that mcgaughy springs give you 2" where as Hotchkis gives you 2 1/4" on an extended cab

 

Not sure how well an EC is going to handle. I would use DJM 4" control arms and call it a day. Buy a sway bar if you want the truck to handle better.

The back, flip it. Run some good shocks on all 4 corners and your truck will handle nice.

 

Just go with DJM or Mcgaughy's 4/6 kit. Hear tons a good things about them and some minor flaws on both too,but no biggies! A 45 series tire will slightly rub on a 4/6.

 

Dont trust that those springs will give you only two inches of lowering, i put them on my ex cab and it lowered about 3.

 

I've heard lots of good stuff about Mcgaughy's products, as well as for Hotchkis. Let me know what you go with. I think Mcgaughy's is more pricey though. Anywho I was thinking of using their suspension products, so keep us informed on your decision. Good Luck

 

Thanks guys! I think I am leaning towards McGaughy's.

 

I'm running the hotchiks tvs and I like it.

 

I already have the Hotchkis 2/4 and when I need new tires, I'm going to get some McGaughy's spindles and shakles and a notch for the rear so I'll be at 4/6.

 

McGaughy's. or Belltech I have use both ,but Mcgaughys all the way if i was you. They are both good as for the shocks use Nitro active drop shocks. As for the control arms i personally dont like them because all they do is drop the center cup where the spring sit about 2"and give you clearance problems . For the tires 40s or 35s will only fit on 4/6 and 5/7 drops.
