Thanks! I had some lock/unlock solenoids from a donor car, so it was actually cheaper to shave than to buy three new door handles....

(thread bump!)

Re: How about some pics of lowered 2wd
For those that have posted pictures already, how much drop do you have on your Suburban and what method did you use to lower it (drop springs, spindles, etc...)? Thanks!

CPP 2.5 inch drop spindles and one loop removed from the coils. rear is two inch lowering blocks. The front coils need to be carefully indexed in both the top and bottom pockets. You cut the end that goes in the bottom pocket.
Also installed 80's IROC stabilizer bars and one-piece driveshaft.

Re: How about some pics of lowered 2wd
I lowered my 'burb with ECE 2.5" drop spindles with 1.5" drop coil springs in the front and 2" rear springs with 1" lowering blocks in the rear. The wheels are 15x8.5 and tires are 235/70's in the front and 255/70's in the rear.

It rides great. I would like to bag assist the rear sometime to help out when I am towing.
