Subject: FS: 3/5 Western Chassis Drop, Complete !
IP: Logged

Message:
Ok guys I just moved to the sticks here in FL and need to lift my truck to make it down some of the screwed up dirt roads here. I have had this drop on the truck for about 1 year now and can provide pictures upon request. This is a western chassis kit. It is a 3" drop in the front, 2" dropped lower control arms, 1" dropped springs (made by eibach). The front has a full energy suspension poly-urethane bushing kit installed. I also have a set of moog nascar spec balljoints installed. The back drop is 5", done with new hangars. I am also including a set of 4 belltech nitro shocks and a front antisway bar from an r/t.
I would be willing to trade this for a fabtech 3" performance lift if anyone has one.
I might possibly be willing to sell my r/t wheels and kumho 275/40/17 tires as well.

This is the best drop for the money, not some pos djm kit, or even worse blocks ! In the year that I had this, I only bottomed out once and that was because the rain filled up a pothole I couldn't see. Ride quality is excellent too, not bouncy at all, firm, but forgiving. If you are in the Gainesville area of FL you are more than welcome to see it.
Make me a reasonable offer, i'm kicking around this idea and trying to find a way to lift the truck with as little $$ out of pocket (hence the selling of the drop kit;)

Forgot to add that these parts are on my 98 CC 5.2 4x2.
I know that they will fit any 97-99 4x2, others may have to do some research.
