Default How low is RST

I hopefully will be selling my 02 GMC Envoy with 22's and get a 03-up 1500 ECSB 5.3l 2WD. I plan on SS bumper, roll pan, magnaflow exhaust and some 20's or 22's. I like the ride height of the Regency RST. Does anyone know how much lower a RST is than a regular 2wd 1500. I want to drop mine to the same as a RST. Thanks

Old thread but I thought I read it was a 1/3" drop somewhere but then I was talking to another guy with a RST and he said it was a 2/4". I dont see it anywhere on regency site anymore and for some reason I cant find 2004 Sierra/Silverado kits on groundforces site. Can anyone confirm what the drop is. Thanks

I pretty sure they are a 1/2 with the rear shackle having holes for a 3" drop also. Atleast thats what my buddies 04 is.

a 1" on a 275/45/20 would be a little higher wouldn't it? and ive never heard a 3" drop shackle from ground force?

you could always measure the front and rear fender lips and then you will know how low you need to go?

Does anyone have a pic of a RST with a 4/6 drop. I would like to see the back just a little bit lower.

if you put a 4/6 drop on a rst it would be just like any other 99-06 gm truck
