My 96 4dr has a Belltech flip kit and removed helper bags and McGaughys lowered shocks. Stock shackles, 2" shock extenders. Got 1/2" down before hitting shaved bumpstops so mostly the McGaughys smooth the bounce back up. It sucks. But I know after a notch it will be great.

Dealing with that angled crossmember looks to be blocking my driver's side notch install. My springs are toast from helper bags I'm sure. I removed after one blew and the other is cracked, passenger side due to odd for/aft mounting of shocks and where the bag top mount welds on.

The removed pipe mounting the bags will become the new notch.
How did you get around the angled cross member? Did you cut it out?

The DJM kit is actually probably the lowest kit for 4 doors

What helper bag kits will fit my 98 tahoe? I want to run a 5/7 drop on it with 17 inch billets. Any help as far as the rear drop goes would be appreciated. I am aware that I could just go with less of a drop or not do it at all but I want to do a 5/7
