Drop hanger for an 08 Sierra 1500?
I recently put a Belltech performance handling kit on my truck, I really like it but two things bother me about it.
1. I’d like it another inch lower in the rear
2. the 2/3” drop shackle has my leaf springs at a crazy angle
i don’t have any vibrations with the shackle at the 3” setting, but the angle does bother me, when I look for a way to get the rear lower 1” all I see is a flip kit and I’d rather do a drop hanger and have the leaf springs at a more reasonable angle. Where can I find a 1or 2” drop hanger?
thanks, Art

You won't find the drop hangers because it's not like a GMT-800 frame where they use rivets to the frame. The hangers are actually welded all the way around and are part of the frame on a GMT-900.
I removed the factory lift block for 1.25in and did 2in drop shackles. Any lower requires a flip kit in the rear.
