3/3 opinion: is it streetable ?

Nitemare · 10-01-2008, 01:07 PM

as you can tell, the way it sits, my shit looks like it's a 4x4. it aint.

i was thinking of going with a 3/3 drop with springs and blocks. not cutting or removing leafs as i originally thought.

is a 3/3 set up streetable for a daily driver?

my friend has a 4/5 drop on his dak and he bottoms out everywhere. i do not want that. it looks sick, but it's not 100% streetable you know what i mean?

3/3's speak up! also contemplating 3/4. we'll see.

Dude i have a 4/4.5 on my truck and i have an x it. I drive it 100 miles a day. Only thing i bottom out on is my x kit and i live in shit hole missery with the shittiest roads around. I would be fine w/o the x kit.
And if your going to do a 3 in front do a 4 in the rear to bring it down a little more and level the truck out a bit.

cool 3/4 maybe then

I have a 3/4 on my 01 Blazer and it is very streetable, never bottoms out. My 97 SS has 5/5.5 and it is streetable as well, just have to be careful some times.

i will be running 3/4 this weekend, its a good balance and still good for dding

4UH8Rs · 10-01-2008, 08:28 PM

i got 5/5 on my 4dr. it depends how you drive your truck. i just dodge potholes and steel plates. i think we got one of the most fked up roads too.

i believe 3/3 is ok and is driveable!

does anyone know how high the lip on the fender in the middle would be to the ground with a 3" drop I am trying to find out what the previous owner did I hope that this will kinda help me narrow it down.

Most stock height trucks is around 31"

i have a 4/4 with 235/60/14 wheels and still have the bumpstops on and i never bottom out and its a daily driver, only rubs on full lock, but i do have practically brand new suspension with coils, shocks, and leafs

dimerunner88 · 10-02-2008, 01:05 AM

yes 3/3 is streetable,you almost don't notice its dropped,just make sure you remove the rear bumpstops and brackets.
