Everything looks correct except for MAYBE the 2" drop hangers. Are you absolutely sure they are installed right? They look a little funny to me for some reason. The 2 inch drop Hangers, Are they the front or rear bracket that holds the leaf spring? Thanks Dave |

They do not care to look at pics and see if any of this stuff is even the correct factory or after market parts. There answer is buy a bunch of factory stuff and start over. There customer service SUCKS........... I know we have people send us pics all the time when they know nothing about something and we are more than able to look at the pics and get a pretty good idea of what is going on. I am pretty fustrated. So with absolutly no factory tech help I am 100 percent at your guys mercy to get this right.
Thanks Dave |

I got drop hangers on my 4X4 Z71 just exactly like the ones you have in the last picture, and mine are NOT DJM, mine are Bell Tech. But mine are a simple 2in drop hanger, that's why I said it looks like the OEM hanger.

This truck only has 58 thousand miles on it. It was originaly a conversion truck with a stepside bed on it.(not sure if that matter but I thought I would tell you.
On the hangers. The guy that installed them said they would only bolt on one way. See how the one in the picture has a location for a cable. Does the other side have the same? Dave |

I've owned about 5 sets of drop shackles, 2 sets of drop springs, 2 sets of hangers(belltech and djm), and currently I run 2" control arms/2" springs/6" djm flip kit and a shackle set at 1" |
Ok, So to get the rear end down to sitting level with the front what do you suggest.
Thanks Dave |
