Default Info on dropping the Burban

Ok so I want to put a little drop (nothing radical) on the wifes Burban and get some aftermarket rims for her (20"z or 22"z). I have no clue on the suspension stuff for the Chevy SUVs or Trucks, where should I start looking.... companies, products things of that nature.

Cheers
Chris

McGaughy's makes a good kit for the 'Burbs from what I hear. They make a 2/3 kit and a 3/5 kit. Either one will allow you to run 20's or 22's no problem. It just depends on how big a tire you want to run.

What are the measurements now? Do you want to lower it all around, or just level the rear with the front? How much?

My AV is built on a Suburban frame/chassis and I've done a little bit of work researching the options.

You could just get some rear springs from Eibach to lower the rear 3" and turn your torsion keys a bit to lower the front another inch or so...
