How much drop........? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I dropped the front 2" with coils. Now I want to drop the rear about 3". Can I do this without modifying the panhard bar and shocks, or is this too much drop? Whats the max drop without buying the adjustable bar etc..? Thanks.

3" coils seem to be where some need the adjustable panhard rod and some don't... I've got the same setup with the adjustable rod, it was only about $70....

get the coils first, then decide if you need the rod...
