Re: What is needed after 4" drop?

I'm not against doing it on the cheap, especially if it's labor.... but they make those drop kits for a reason... everything works together and has been tested out. And it's usually cheaper than buying separately.

Just changing springs will get you so far but the look most want involves more than just springs. If you have to replace worn suspension parts you might as well get the kit as the labor shouldn't be any more.
