*99-07c 2WD Drop Parts and Recommendations*

The spring can only compress for what it is designed, so with your theory, you could remove shocks period and have helladrop.

The only way I can see that is if you were running too long of a shock to begin with, but technically you would not be getting more drop, just what you were supposed to in the beginning

What Jared said. Even going from stock shocks to drop shocks you shouldn't see a difference in height.

Maybe he's thinking about adjustable struts? I've seen a lot of guys with nnbs' running adjustable struts up front :shrug:

True he might but this thread is for nbs only

 

[Jose.]

And he mentioned getting doestech shocks

 

[Dakota]

Yea, thought maybe he was just confused lol

 

[Drew Perryman]

Not confused haha, just trying to get around having to pull the springs out to cut them.

Been lookin for a djm flip kit and they all seem to come with the notches, but im doing my own underbed step... I hear alot about Tim being a good choice to go to.. Does he do the djm? Or can yall point me in the direction i need to head?? I want the djm for the pinion adjustment. I also need the carrier bearing bracket.

 

[An Bro]

Great thread! Lots of info.

Anyone have pics of what the djm notch kit did to there frame? My dad is about to add this kit to his truck.

 

[Jared]

Tell him to buy another notch. We have a notch thread check that.

:word: a member on here just went through this with djm not too long ago. go with belltech or mcg :imo:

 

[An Bro]

I hear what you guys are saying. But you can't tell someone that's anti internet that some guys on the internet said something didn't work correctly. So pics would be best.

I've got his djm kit and my mcg kit side by side. (uninstalled) Is there a way to explain why the djm kit caused this problem?

Member on here, cant remember his name.

[Jared]

yeah, tell him it's a shit design, with shit metal, that causes shit cracks...

tell him also, we gain nothing from telling him DJM sucks...none of us work for belltech, avs, or mcgaughy.

Also, just google "DJM notch issues" or "DJM notch crack" etc, be creative when searching

 

[An Bro]

Thanks guys. Didn't mean for you to spoon feed me some info. I've been up in the notch thread. And i'll let him read what was just posted.

 

[Jared]

that's what we are here for, but don't limit yourself to just the site for info, there are many threads on other sites too, that will give you more credibility when you tell him not to use it

Does anyone have the part nimbers for monroe or kyb shocks for a 06 with 6" flip

galaxy s3

 

[Jared]

stay away from the monroe shocks that are for the Nissan/Toyota trucks, I blew my front one from the LCA, was sketchy as fuck. If you have a rcsb it may be ok, but my CC hated it, and the rear isn't that great. I will get the part numbers.
