[russ_2004_85]

im going to go with i 4/5 drop.

i already have 2 inch springs and 2 inch blocks. im going to go with belltech 2' drop spindles. what are the best 3" drop leaf springs is my question? thanks guys

Go with Belltech. I think Ground Force or maybe someone else is the only other company that makes 3" drop leafs.

They all have drop leafs.

Or just search on Ebay.

From what I understand all drop leafs will be about the same quality! Good luck and keep us posted. I am looking into a 2/3 spindle/leaf drop soon so I am interested to hear anyone's experience with drop leafs

[BigTruckDrivah]

I got some suspensionmax ones off eBay, they work fine.

[93_deuce]

Summit and JC Whitney both sell Belltech 3" lowering leafs for under $100 each. That's the best deal I have come across yet.

Good luck and keep us updated.

Drop leafs are de-arched and have less leafs then you stock leafs. So after you install them you will get some serious axle wrap (wheel hop).

They ride good.

I can't put very much wieght in the back with out it sagging now. Truck looks good at least.

i have a tonneau cover anyway.. i dont put much back there. practically a 2 seater car. lol...

i have the anti hop dampner so i should be good on the axle wrap. i hope.

I have 3" blocks in back and once i got my zexel (posi) in i had really bad wheel hop.
I got the hellwig 550 helper springs and bye bye wheel hop!
Tho i am thinking about getting a set of zq8 leaf springs and 1" blocks to get rid of the 3" blocks

[BigTruckDrivah]

Oh ya I forgot about the wheel hop. I just got some cheap helper leafs from autozone and my wheel hop vanished.

[russ_2004_85]

i got the anti hop dampner. i should be fine.

i got the anti hop dampner. i should be fine.

What is that?

I know what helper leafs are but I have never heard of anti hop dampner.

[White-V-6-S-Ten]

The anti-hop damper is a shock thats attached to the rear end.

I'll have to see if I have one. I'm assuming this is a second gen thing and not possible on a first gen though

[Big Mack Daddy]

Yes, second gen's only. Also only on some ZQ8 trucks.
