Hey all, I have a 2003 Chevrolet silverado 1500. I would like to level it out, but instead of raising the front, instead i would like to drop the back down around an inch. I was wondering what I needed to do this and where I could get it. I was told they sell lowering shackles, is this what I need?
Thanks

 

yes lowering shackles is what you need belltech makes them you can go 1.5' are 2' i belive it is.

and welcome to the site

 

2" drop shackles is what you need. Suspension companies like Belltech, DJM, etc. are all great choices.

 

Ok cool, so 2 inches will get me good and level? Does anyone have any pics of these installed on their truck. Thanks for the help!!!

 

i got my roll pan off so i got a clear shot at mine, if no one posts up pics today ill get em up first thing tomorrow morning for ya

 

Thanks!!!

 

heres the drop hangers currently installed. i couldnt find my stock ones to do a comparison but there probably about 2" different lol




here are two pictures of my truck w/o the 2" front spring drop and the 2" rear hanger drop so this is JUST the 2" shackles... it woulda looked alot better had i bought the right tire size



just so you can get a comparisson heres my truck with the 2/4 drop

 

And it looks nice!!!

What Brand front springs are those and how does it ride now?

 

thanks buddy

its belltech
it rides good but you can def tell the diff from stock. like i said though i gotta get some shocks to

sometimes i wish i woulda stayed closer to stock like you did so when i get my motor done it can be a sleeper... but then other times when i get comments on it im glad i did

 

makes me want to get off my lazy **** and finish up. I think that my tires will rub if id do it right now....265-75-16...any thoughts? drop does look sweet
