Thread: Lowering a Chevy Truck

Yes flipping is a little on the extreme side around 6" drop will be had from this. Yes you will also need to do c-notches.

You say you are looking for a couple inches lower nothing extreme. A 2" in front and 4" in the rear will bring you down level. Typically these trucks are 2" higher in the rear stock from the factory. So a 2" in the front and 2" in the rear will give you a little lower stock look. You can get this by simply replacing front springs and hangers in the back. That would be the cheapest route but still done correctly. I personally would do dropped spindles in the front and you should be able to get a new set for 200-300 dollars. Dropped spindles for these trucks usually come with a 2.5" drop. Bell Tech is one of the leaders in these kits but remember that there are plenty others that make these kits. Check their site for kits. Also remember to check and readjust your pinion angle after you get done , going up or down changes the angle.
