4/6 drop springs $180 shipped. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

FirstGen · 02-03-2005, 02:57 PM

I bought these springs new from Ricks Pickup Parts (board sponcer) about 5 months ago. Paid 119 per pair plus shipping. I drive the truck on the weekends and on nice days, maybe put 1500 miles on it since then. Going to coil overs or air bags so these need to go. After I recieve payment I will pull them and ship via USPS.
Thanks.

Hey firstgen, i thought i was going to get first crack at those springs? If you still got them let me know. Im in DFW so you wouldnt have to ship them. My only question is ...... you did a 4" drop spring in front? The reason i ask is because ive heard you cant drop the front that much with springs and not have issues. I was going to do a 2.5" drop spindle and a 1.5" drop spring but if you can get away with a spring drop of that much in the front without issues then i'll take the set. If not, let me know what you want for the rear springs if youll brake them up?

No problem Steve, I thought you didn't want them since they were 4" drop in the front. I have had no problems with them. I just had it aligned after the install to make sure I didn't have any tire wear problems. Not sure who says you can't do a 4" drop springs in the front with out problems but it isn't an issue in my case. I don't have any other mods to the suspension. Even running stock shocks without problems.

Either way, I don't really want to break the set up... If you want them let me know.

I also may be interested. Do you have any pics of your truck with the springs installed? Thanks....

If someone else is interested in just the front, I MAY be interested in just the rear..

zooza · 02-03-2005, 10:27 PM

I want both, just let me know if i get 'em or not! Thanks
Of course , if i cant have both i will take the front! only. whichever is fine

I'll give Steve first stabs at it since he did ask a while back. I'll keep everyone posted. Thanks.

GreyHoundSteve · 02-04-2005, 10:34 AM

Hey first, go ahead and give them to the next guy. I was wanting to do dropped spindels in front so im sure someone else can put them to better use. If for some reason you end up breaking up the set then i will defintely take the rear set of springs. Also, keep me updated on what you find out about coilovers .... i havent been able to find much info on them.
