South Tx (R.G.V) Truck Shop ?
Hey you all, well as some of you know I purchased some 20" for my Sierra. The truck looks way better but, it needs to be dropped a couple of ". I called "Big H Customs" here in McAllen and they quoted me $550(not including shocks). The problem is, they are only open from Monday to Friday, I work all week and only have weekends off. What do you guys think, should I buy a kit and have someone else install it? Any of you guys from the Rio Grande Valley (R.G.V) know of some other place that installs drop kits? Tiburon, sunshine, anyone help?

I got a Freind here in Sullivan City that dropped mine! im not sure when he is available and when you plan on lowering it and also how many " ? His cell phone is 956-867-1518 Albert is his name He charged me 180 for springs and shocks in front and hangers in the back it took almost ahalf day to do ,so im not sure when he is going to be available just tell him Quintanilla is your freinds and see if he gives you a Discount!

You can try 3 Star Muffler. I can probably hook you up with a good deal there since I know the owner.
It looks like you already have a 2" drop on your truck. Another option is just to buy some drop coil spring and take your truck to Mexico drop it over there. They can dearch your leaf spring 2" for a total of 4" drop on the rear and install your drop coals to get that 2" drop in the front. I had this done done for $75 plus the cost of the drop coil springs and shackles. The shocks you can order them later and install them yourself since they are real easy to do. Let me if you want to this route to tell you where this place is.

Make sure it is a good shop that you can trust to do a good job. I cannot see anyone messing up a small drop, but if you were doing a flip kit etc. I would make sure I knew their work and check up on the truck frequently.
I just don't trust anyone with my truck. That is how learned so much I did my own drop with DJM control arms and Belltech flip kit. I can see taking it to a shop if you don't have the tools though.
How are you going to drop the front?

Theres a place in Reynosa also i think its called Muelles y Amartiguadores or some **** like that my cuzin went and drop his 03 and it doesnt bounce he cut one half turn of the springs in front and heat up the Leaf Springs to a 5" so it look ****** badass for a good price!
