Question New Truck want to lower?

This week I am getting a 2003 GMC Sierra ECSB 2wd. I want to lower it 2/4.
I can't go lower because it still has to go through canadian winters. I have priced Belltech 2/4 and a eibach 2/3 lowering kit and they were the same price. What would you suggest between those 2 or something else? I want to keep a good ride and good price?

i personally like belltech, i have heard nothing but good reviews on them. I think tha 2/4 would give it a more leveled look if thats what you were goin for. It wont really effect your ride quality too much, but u will have to change out those rear shocks.

look at mcgaughys. They have a really good spindle drop kit that is top notch. The ride is exactly like factory when all done.

Thanks for the replies, in the front would springs or spindles be the better way to go?

If you want to keep the factory ride, then spindles in the front and a hanger/shackle kit in the rear is the way to go. Mcgaughys makes the best spindle for these trucks, for the rear you can't go wrong with Mcgaughys, Bell Tech, or DJM.
