Re: lowering a 93 suburban 2wd question

Best and least expensive don't go together.

Use drop spindles and springs up front.
A shackle/hanger combo or drop leaf springs is good for a mild rear drop.
A flip kit will get more like a 6" rear drop.

There is no reason to lower it, if it's not going to ride good.
This also means quality drop shocks.

I have a 94 suburban. Lowered 4/6. Drop spindles and springs up front. Flip kit and c-notch in the rear. Sits pretty low. Sorry I don't have any pics.
