Just curious. If you experienced guys were going to piece together a drop instead of buying a kit, which components from which manufacturer?
I have read that Belltech has the best notch so I started to get a Belltech kit, then I read that their spindles move the tire out 1/2". Everyone seems to prefer DJM spindles, how are their springs? Definitely going with Belltech SP shocks. So tell me guys, if you were going to piece one together what would be the preferred components from each manufacturer?

I like the way yours sits, mine is a 94 ecsb. Do you mind measuring your valence height? I assume you have a 2" spindle and 3" spring? How is the ride?
