lowering suspension kits/companies for an OOBS C30
 

Looking at suspension kits and was wondering who has had good luck with what, and why.

What I am thinking as of now is to static drop it with spindles, and lower a arms or springs in the front. Then either do an axle flip with coilovers, or just do a 4 link system and do my rear bags off the hop.



Any suggestions or words to the wise? This thing will be driven daily so there is not high need to lay frame by any means, but want to function properly as much as humanly possable.

I use bell tech on my 1T's and you dont want to use spindles and dropped arms together you'll be dragging your arms
for a daily driver I wouldn't go much more then a 4" drop on the front spindles and a 1" spring

I've got 3" Western chassis spindles and cut ~1.5 coils off the stock springs, flip kit with overloads removed in the rear and it rides great, I've yet to bottom out the control arms and will only barely rub the tires in front (225-75-16 and inner fenders removed) when turning really sharp while hitting a bump, like pulling into a parking lot. Works great for a DD and on the cheaper side of getting it done too

Any pics of your setup?

Not looking to remove inner fenders as I travel gravel, snow, rain etc.....unless I build some custom setup. Figured I could get away with more than that withuot rubbing.

I plan to run around a 245/70/16? or so? on factory 16x8 steelies. But then again I am swapping over to single wheel as well. Maybe that will make a difference on the rubbing?

any chance you have any pictures? Trying to figure out how much spring to cut. Got some 3" bell tech spindles on the cheap the other day, but want a bit more.
