Anyone lowered their 1989 gmc 3500 dually and have any specs on it ???
Had mine done and they went by original height specs , something in the handling doesn't seem right , feels like it's skating a bit .
I didn't lower it so I don't know how much
Here's a picture maybe you can tell by it

Took it back for another look at things did a couple things on it and still is the same , we figure it's the steering box , with 355000 on it it very well could be worn out , I will try a new one
Thanks for your replies

When you say specs, are you talking about alignment or the parts used?

My 1988 lowered 6/9, and drives awesome considering the drop.
(We did set the camber at -1 to keep tires from rubbing fender)

Stupid assumption, do the wheels have the metal plates
between the rim and the lugs to help center the nuts?

Specs for alignment and yes it does have those plates
What did you use for the front drop
