Be Honest! Whos truck rides Like $%&?
After installing my Mcgaughy 4/6 drop with cnotch and helper bags on my 04 silverado i feel like i'm in a log truck! Who else feels that way? Be honest! It looks BADASS, but rides like crap. any tricks or do I live with it?

Here. 4/7 on beltech shocks. Rides good then the bumps come along and holy hell. Looks badass though, plenty of people compliment the dam thing. I got upper coilover adapters for mine just waiting for someone to find a coilover that works along with part numbers. Banker99 im lookin at u lol.

My discovery is that the front & rear has to be balanced. The Vikings I have in back were almost worthless until I put the Belltech front struts on. The truck rides so much better now.
Another thing is to get the proper length shocks after you drop it. I blew out the rear factory shocks in about a week after I dropped my truck.

I cut off some of the factory bump stop on my front control arms last night. It seem to help with a little more travel. I also expected my repair leaves to be here today to fix my rear springs. It sits too low so I've been running a little air in my helper bags to sit level and this magnifies the rough ride
