Anybody seen a kit I can put on my 03? Ive searched google and the forum and havent found any thing other than the ground force 2/3 kit. I realise Im gonna catch some crap for wanting to drop a z71, but my old lady's has back issues, and shes pregnant, so up isnt an option and neither is stock.

Thanks but that kit is for coil springs, and I got leaf springs out back, this is the big issue with finding a kit. Does anybody know if I can pick up a 3" kit for the front and throw shackles hangars and springs in the back?

Are you sure you have leafs out back??? Every Av ive seen has coils in the rear, not to sure about the 3/4 ton though. Make sure you look again, Im almost positive it has coils in the rear. And you won't catch any **** here for lowering your 4x4. There is alot of guys lowering their 4x4 here including me, I removed the blocks out back and decranked my keys. That got be about a 1-2 drop for now. Waiting for my shackles to come and have new keys to throw in. I should be at a 2-4 drop when done, maybe go lower later on when i get some more $$$

call up DJM. they make 3" lower control arms for 4x4 silverados and tahoes. i don't see why it would be any different on an avalanche. as far as the back goes, if you have leaf springs you could do shackles and hangers.

the difference between a 4x4 and a Z71 is some "off road" shocks and some extra skid plates.
