Default Seeking Advice on 2/4 CCSB Sierra - Post ****** Welcome!

What's being used for a mild 2/4 drop on 03-06 CC's with the welded front leaf hanger? I'm not looking for anything crazy, just a sporty drop and maybe some factory 20's on my '05 Sierra CCSB. Thanks.

BTW: I believe in the form, function, fitment, and quality type parts rather than the cut this, grind here, bend this piece around your right index finger, and weld up this one-off part aproach...

Up front u have alot of choices. 1 - 2"drop coil spring 2- 2"drop spindles or 3- 2" lower control arms. Your choice on how much u wanna spend...
On the back i personally would recomend doin a flip kit with a 1 3/4" lift shackle. This makes it. Just over a 4" drop on the back. U can also do drop leafs but alot of people say the ride is way stiffer and bouncy... it all just depends on how much u are willing to spend
