Yup, did a 4/7 drop (spindles, springs, flip kit) on my nnbs n it ended up being just a bit higher in the back. Used the struts to raise up the front about .5" to level it out. I really like the struts, it rides a little stiffer which I like and takes corners a little better. Money well spent if you ask me.

I have the 2/4 Beltech drop on my '02 ECSB since '07ish, with Nitro2 shocks in the rear. It's getting time to chg out, and I'm starting to do my hw. Any other suggestions?

What tire are you running? Hows your alignment? What parts did you use for your drop? I hardly ever rub even with 24" rims, it used to rub a little but thats because my alignment was off.
