Best kit for 2/4 drop

ShortBed · Aug 28, 2013

Just wanted to see everyone's opinion on what kit works the best for a 2011 2wd reg cab. I know there are a lot of different kits out there, but which one works best for our trucks. I am looking to drop my truck, but I don't want to have to cut coils. Also I read a lot about the trucks bottoming out driving around. For normal driving what kit is really needed. New shocks and springs front and back I am guessing? Thanks

I went with the McGuaghy deluxe 2/4 drop, plus I cut my coils for even more. ended up with a 3.5" drop up front and a 5" drop in the rear. still rides really good.

I went with belltech as well I love it, no ass shaking on speeds over 70 and I only bottom out on hard bumps but I am on 24s

I had the McGaughy deluxe on my 03 Ram. Drove it for 8 years with no problems. Planning on going with the same for my 13. I have read where some air bags installed inside the rear springs with about 5 psi of air help stop any bottoming out.
I think the drop spindles are better for the suspension than spring changes, but that's just my $.02.

i currently have the belltech 2/4 drop and am pleased with it. i am seeing what shocks to change to in order to have a little better ride.

i hear that the mcgaughy kit is also very good, and highly recommended by many

BellTech 2/4 with stock front shocks, BellTech rear shocks, and Spohn adjustable panhard rod. Mine rides like a 9. Easy install in 3.5 hours. Had mine aligned immediately, and I am really satisfied.

Bang for buck, the Belltech Street Performance kit is tough to beat. The McGaughy's spindle kit is very nice as well, but it will pull your front wheels out a bit unless you cut your coils to go lower than 2".

Backout11, I'm in Sharpsburg and looking for someone to do install. Who did you use?
