Question about 2/4 drop

[SickAssHEMI]

I have a 08 QC hemi, just ordered a 2/4 from Mcgaughys. Went with drop coils instead of spidles. 4 new shocks F/B from belltech nitro drop 2's & a hellwig sway bar #7651. Was wondering if there is anything else i should do with this drop. Want the best ride i can get. Havent really looked into changing uper & lower control arms. Shoukd that be done with a 2/4 drop?? I added the sway bar bc of the body roll ppl were having with there drops. Was thinking about getting one for the front but havent seen to many rams with a front sway bar. Pls give me your input or if somebody has the same setup im doing & i there havig any issues

Shorter front bumpstops. Factory front swaybar is fine.

Swype-n from my Galaxy Note

You could always swap some of those rubber bushings with poly bushings. Tends to stiffen it up, and lengthen life a good amount.

You mean change the stock bushing in the control arms to poly bushings? Is that a pain in the ass to do? & what about shaving the bump stops? My kit comes with new bump stops that i think are smaller than stock. Not sure though. Some guy on here took his out & rides with no bump stops. That didnt sound right to me. I just dont want to always be hitting the bump stops when on a ****** road. Any more input on this drop im trying to do. Thanks bro

Control arms yes can be difficult. But sway bar, and leaf spring bushings are pretty easy.

i believe the McG' kit comes with bump stops for the rear only.

yep only for the rear, i might even shave them down 1/4'' on the rear, just seen a thread on here with the same kit & he didnt change the front bump stops, when he lowered it off the jacks the stops rode on the control arm. thank god i didnt install mine yet. im ordering smaller ones from energy suspension for the front today. now im hoping i have everything i need to get this drop right.

Man if I was you a front spindle drop rides a hell a lot better then drop springs and keeps geometry close to stock
