 Subject: Want more drop out of my drop
IP: Logged
Message:
Hello All.
Long time reader, occasional writer.
Fan of all your work.
Question is:
I have a belltech 2/4 drop kit that I bought for stupid amount of dollars. Unfortunatly I've come to like the look of a 4/5 drop with 20's.
Question is, how can I get more inches out of my belltech without having to buy a whole new kit?
All it is really is shorter springs and shocks.
AND, having answered all these. What parts should I get?
The other question is, if I have to get new control arms, will I loose precious turning radius like I've read elswhere.
AND... how low is too low before I start to see it interfere with performance... also like I've read.
And a warning to all. If you like the look of something the first time you see it. Sleep on it and look around. Or you'll be writing a ppost like this one.

the front drop is a spindle drop and the only way to change it is to get a new set of front steering knuckles with the spindle placed higher on the knuckle, thus lowering the front end. Usually a 2 inch rear drop is with a shackle change, a five inch drop most likely will invovle that and a axle/spring spacer or inversion.
