Has anyone installed Belltech 4" rear springs on their 4th gen 2wd Xpress?

Just received in mail today and want to know how true to 4" they are before install.

Also...anyone looking to put 2" rear springs on will sell 120 shipped in US.

Thanks and will post pics when done on Thurs.

Only dropping the rear?

It just so happens that my R/T is currently sitting in the garage with the rear dropped 4". The 2" front drop will go on when I can find the time.

Right now, with absolutely no miles on it, the drop is 3.5" from stock but I've read it settles after a while.

Here's a pic:

Thanks for the reply and the pic...sweet truck by the way.

No, I dropped 2" front and back and front is nice but the rear is still very high. Was going to go with a 3" spring in the back but thought I would cut to the chase and put on the belltech 4".

If mine looks about like yours...I'm golden.

Thanks again

Soon enough.

We just got another 6" of snow dumped on us so it won't be going any where any time soon.

Thanks man! They say for a 2wd but I'm assuming they would work fine on a 4x4?

You will need a track bar relocator if your dropping the rear 4"
