Did you use coils or spindles up front? Let us know how the Bell Tech gear holds up. I hear so much good, bad, and ugly about various manufacturers. Figure when people see failures, it's probably because they goofed the install or are running redonkulous 26" rims.

I used the BellTech 2inch drop spindels up front and their mount relocation kit in the rear which lowers it 4inches getting it level and not at a the hot rod rake also i used their entry level drop shocks so far it is great. The only problem ive had was the front tires hitting my fenders inner lip but i fixed that. Clearance is still good enough that i could drive over a curb if i needed to or in the snow. Its summer now so it hasnt rained hard enough to see if i need to get my sheilds back in. my front tires looked pushed out when i first sat it down but the measurements where the same when i got it lined up. What i did find out is that fenders on the bed are a couple inches wider than the front and it gives it that illusion. the front tapers in like so /\.

And the nice thing about using just spindles, is that you don't have to get an alignment. Trucks look'n good.

sweet 2/4 drop i heard alot of belltech and my uncle had an old school western chassi he baught back in the day brand new never used sense in the late 90's 4/6 was the way to go so he did that with some colorado custom wheels, and forgot about his 2/4 and then i bought if off him.

Yeah its nice for right now im going to keep it this way so i can run autocross in it during the summer but later on when i get my camaro up and running ill get a set off slam specialty bags so i can drop it into the weeds like my sig pic.

still recommended

Super Silvi 1990, Lookin good! I like the moldings and badged on your truck. normally I like the debadged look but its really nice to see something different and your truck can pull it off!

Thanks man at first i was going to strip them off but here in Oklahoma everyone runs there truck with the badges striped off. So i cleaned them up with some tire shine (Back to Black) and a buffer and it looks great. The black with chrome rims dont hurt eighter.
