Which rear drop springs?

I am wanting to get the rear of my truck lower, but I have read where people have bought lowered springs that did not lower the truck as low as the advertised hight. Which company sells springs that get it as low as advertised? I have been looking at CPP's 5" kit and ECE's 6" kit

Re: Which rear drop springs?

I think the reason the "new" springs weren't as low as advertised,... is because people are taking their measurements right off their 30+ year old trucks. These springs are already sagging from all the years of use. I think if you bought some new "stock height" springs,... installed them,... then measured,... I think the 5" or 6" drop would be right on. Go to ECE's "stance photos" if you want to find the look of your sellected drop. I vote for ECE over CPP.
