Not sure, but think he is asking about spindles to lower his SS on top of the factory drop from the zq8 package

Hello Fernan and welcome.
The SS has the ZQ8 suspension which consist of a lower ride height over a regular S-series suspension. The drop stock is 1.5 up front and in the rear. GM uses a lowered coil up front and a different/lower leaf out back.
If you want to lower it more, then do the spindles. The ride quality would remain the same and steering aligment wont change.
You need to consider the drop specs on aftermarket drop spindles are going to ADD to the already drop. So if you get a 2" drop spindle, your truck will sit lower than a SS/ZQ8 by 2" but 3.5" lower than a std s-series.
Hope this helps and answers your question. If Im way off, just let us know.
