Dropping my truck right.

[truckintim05]

I bought my truck with some hacked drop on it. It rides like absolute ****. I'm ready to change everything out to get the job done right. I need a little advice on where to buy some items.

The front looks like the coil has just been cut. I want to go with 2" coils and a 2" spindle instead. I also need to change the ball joints as they also look nasty. The rear was lowered by removing the overload + 1 leaf, and a shackle, no notch. I need to find a new leaf spring, get a flip kit, and a notch. Do you think a junk yard is the best place to find leaf pack? Where can I find ball joints? Best bang for the buck site for a drop kit?

I stick with DJM and Western Chassis myself. BellTech is good, but I just don't like their spindles on these trucks.

yea the only thing that I would put beltech over djm is their flip kit. It seems much stronger but Ive never used one. Ive done DJM on all my trucks and dont have a single complaint

I will eventually. I have some other priorities on it first. First suspension, then a horrible oil leak, leak in A/C, then maybe wheels and body work.

Thank you.

I'm not afraid to notch it. I've dropped plenty of trucks in the past. The shop I used to work for is going to let me use their space since they aren't doing much work there.

I've used a lot of BellTech and mcgaughys drops in the past and I like both brands, but those were all customer rides and I installed what the shop sold. This is a budget build and the first OBS i've dropped. So DJM spindles? I'll look into that. Thanks for the quick responses.
