Thanks man, that's exactly what I was going for.
I would have like to have gone maybe an 1" lower all around but there was no way of doing so w/o sacrificing turning radius... with me working in the city that is not really something I want to do anymore. My 01' Sierra was 4/6 dropped on spindles and coils and the ride of that compared to this one is night and day different. The Belltech struts did stiffen up the ride enough for me to notice a little bit of change but I actually prefer that to the bouncy *** Rancho struts that come with the Z71s. Took the wife in it last night when we went to Target and she said if I hadn't told her I put lowering struts on, she would have never noticed

In short, I would recommend these struts to anyone looking to go 1"-2" lower over the drop coils or even spindles for that matter. Spindles will obviously ride nicer but the little amount of ride quality you give up for the struts out weighs the large amount of turning radius you give up for spindles.

 

Too add to that...

With only doing lowering struts didn't have to unbolt any ball joints, tre or sway bar. Just 3 bolts in the top of the strut and 2 on the bottom.. then at full droop you can just wiggle the whole coil assembly out/in after you have installed the lowering struts. This saved a lot of time as opposed to unbolting all that ****.

 

my z71 is sitting pretty low right now

 

Thanks for these pics! You saved me a lot of time. 2/4 is not what I want/need. I like low, and I now see 2/4 won't be low enough for me. 3/5 or 4/6 is my direction. Thanks again!

 

now thats a necropost

 

yeah, hopefully he's swapped those tires at least once, if not twice in the last 8 yrs.
