    97 crew cab body on a 89 single cab long bed.frame

    I COULD BE WRONG ON MY MEASURMENT, I believe you can cut and extent the Xcab frame under the cab 14" to compensate for the cab size differences. I believe you need a piece of 2x6 Box steel to fill the frame, and swap one side of the piece driveshaft out and add a std cab dive shaft or just use a...

    Crown 2" Drop Spindles and 15" wheels

    White96Lightning cool to see a local on here, im in Anderson. The guys at Carolina truck shop push crown because its one of their main vendors. Nothing against them or crown but i had never heard of crown until they attempted to sell it to me. Since they sell to a lot of people in the area im...

    5/7 drop guys.....

    Rojas, I just checked out your build post and its coming along nicely. Honestly im very jealous, i want a crewcab bad. So you converted a 2500 to a 1500? how difficult was it? im assuming the hardest part was sourcing a rear end? Did you have to swap out any of the control arms or did the 1500...

    5/7 drop guys.....

    5" up front? right... what size wheels are those? I am running a 5/8? i believe, 2" spindles, 3" springs in the front, flip kit, AVS under bed, and 2" shackles in the rear on 20" boss wheels and i dont tuck that much rim, maybe in the back but my truck no longer has rake so the front doesn't...

    DJM Dealer

    I just got done purchasing spindles and honestly considering where your from you might as well get them from summit racing. I would much rather support a local guy than I big corporate company but they will be the same price as DJM and give free ground shipping ending up being cheaper then DJM...

    Lowered 6” in front ?

    I have a 91 std cab that is 5" in the front. 2" DJM spindles and 3" DJM springs. I forget which tires I'm running but its a 40 series on 20" boss 304's. I rub a little when I hit a bump on the outside on the fender. I have thought a little about going lower on the front but honestly I don't...

    c-notch question

    I didn’t have enough experience to mess with pinion angle myself so I went with the mcgaughy c notch, straight forward and simple, my only complaint is it would of been nice to get new u-bolts. My AVS notch came out good also.

    c-notch question

    yeah I thought about that shortly after I posted it. it would be different if I were boxing it in fully and I may further down the line but I understand after thinking about it how it would actually be weaker. I wish I would of known about the reklez kit a week ago, I already own the avs... I...

    95 Tahoe lowering questions

    I sold my Tahoe and went with a truck for these exact reasons. good luck, I've heard you have to move the rear seat forward and go with the 2wd gas tank.

    c-notch question

    So does anyone have a lead on a belltech flip kit for a 91 c1500 without the notch? I can only find listings with the notch and well I don't need one since im going with the AVS one. May not be the correct place for this post. if not I don't mind deleting.

    5/6 or 5/7 lowering the best kit?

    Richard, Thank you, definitely helps. I have a 91 std cab myself which ill be using 20" boss 304's and ive gone with an AVS super C. I also have a 2" shackle I can use but im not cutting into the bed other than clearance for the kit and pumpkin so I don't even know if ill have the clearance to...

    c-notch question

    So I went with the AVS super C notch with is weld in. With that being said there is a certain amount to fabrication needed, because of that, they do not come with installation instructions. This brings my next point. To my knowledge you take the outer plate and cup the existing frame wall and...

    5/6 or 5/7 lowering the best kit?

    so taking from rojo and someotherguy's notes... Both flip kits have the pinion angle's set into them but the DJM kit is adjustable requiring additional or different hardware which potentially complicates installation. So it almost seems like it would be easier to go with the Belltech flip. with...

    5/6 or 5/7 lowering the best kit?

    So I went with djm 3” springs because I got them second hand along with 2” shackles for $75. I also went with the Avs notch not because of the clearance for travel but the reinforcement above the frame to save some towing capacity. Kit looks good. I’m thinking about swapping out the 1x1 bar and...

    c-notch question

    My first real post so forgive me for the newb question. I have a 91 std cab I'm about to do a 5/7 on. I plan on using DJM 3" coils, DJM 2" spindles for the front, I'm not really sure what flip kit since I believe they are all about the same. I also have a 2" shackle for the rear if needed. Ill...
