dude...how low of a kit is that?
2/4 but it will be a 3/5
Just FYI, for a true 3/5 I had to use shorter bumpstops than what was provided with the Belltech kit. I was almost sitting on the ones provided in the kit with just the 2/4. What I did was cut all the factory bumpstop cups off front and rear. Then I used the ones provided in the kit for the front(the ones with the threaded stud coming out) in the rear and bought Belltech's 1-1/4" tall bumpstops(part# 4922, New Belltech Bump Stop Kit Suburban Chevy GMC K1500 Chevrolet 96 95 99 4922 | eBay) in the front instead. This worked out perfectly.2/4 but it will be a 3/5
Half a coil off the bottom in the front and a full coil off the top in the rear.How much are you cutting to get the 3/5 i want to drop mine a little more but could never find someone that has cut belltec
Yes, but the rear has the spring locator hoop on the bottom so you want to cut off the top.Does the general "1/2 coil in front= 1" & 1 coil in rear=1" " rule not apply to all springs which aren't progressive?
You just cut whichever length from the bottom portion of the coil and you're good, non?
