other truck was tubular lower DJM arms drop spindle setup was ok played with a few sets of shocks to get the ride quality (not coil overs)

i bought a set for my current truck and have some qa1 pro coils for up front but haven't got them on hoping they ride better then the other setup

I was going to mention strong arms.

It would be nice if they made them for a NNBS Tahoe.
