um you kinda need the leaf springs lol. for a 3/4 do 2" drop spindles, 1" coils, 3" drop leafs, and 1" blocks. throw some drop shocks on the back and you're set.

terryl · 05-15-2008, 11:24 PM

What he said ^^^ But it will cost you a little more. Best to do it right the first time. Costs less in the long run.

lowcherrydime · 05-15-2008, 11:27 PM

what he said^^^ and don't forget to get an alignment too.

i was thinking i could get 4" drop blocks, 2" spindles, and 1" coils

terryl · 05-15-2008, 11:31 PM

You could, but with those tall blocks you will have some pretty wicked axle wrap if you like to get on it.

ok then i won't do it that way

lowcherrydime · 05-15-2008, 11:38 PM

ok i tell you what based on your first post i would just buy a part at a time ya know piece it together. i think you'll be happier you did. unless of course you can't wait and just have to drop it now.

look at www.airgasmkustomz.com and get their 4" drop leaf springs for $90...i have never had 'em or seen 'em on a truck but there is your rear taken care of for ya (besides the shocks)

2000gmcsonoma · 09-26-2008, 09:29 PM

ok, whered you get that at? I am piecing mine together.... was getting ready to order some stuff later today but.... that sounds doable right now! I wonder what other things you'll encounter with that much of a drop.... axle, driveshaft issues?
and I know I asked this before but cant find that post..,,, does anyone know what size bolt to buy ahead of time as I keep reading to do the rear its just easier to cut off a bolt in the back and replace it... I know people have worked it out but just cutting it off and replacing seems easier to me...

Driveway Kustomz · 09-27-2008, 01:18 PM

2.2s dont have enough power to worry about axel wrap lol

2000gmcsonoma · 09-27-2008, 09:41 PM

i got it from a fried that paid well over 500 for it and the bumpstops hit the axle and the box behind the gas tank hits to

rican 25 · 09-29-2008, 12:49 AM

so does anyone have the size of the bolt that is easier to cut off? I want to buy one before I start all this mess.. thanks

Driveway Kustomz · 09-29-2008, 08:20 AM
