: What is the best way to lower a 2WD Duramax? noreaster 05-17-2005, 07:10 PM I would suggest picking up a copy of Truckin magazine, lots of drops & sport truck stuff. Probably 20 or kits in there, just a guess. McRat 05-17-2005, 07:50 PM Let the air out of the tires. J/K.

I ahve a 2wd dually with a 6/8 drop lower control arms in front and a rear flip kit www.djmsuspension.com they also make a 3/5 kit also for a steel dump is mcgaughys they have them from a 2/4 to 3/5 www.mcgaughys.com For air kits it is basically air ride technologies www.ridetech.com or a build it yourself, or find a shop to do it that has their own set ups but for over the counter is air ride 1sick57 06-25-2005, 11:29 AM I'm interested in this as well, but I'm concerned about bump steer. DJM makes a kit that uses a different lower control arm on the front, but it changes the relationship between the tie rod and the lower control arm creating bump steer. DJM has apparently realized this is a problem, because they've released a kit that flips the tie rod 180 degrees. I don't know if this completely cures the bump steer, although I imagine it cures some of it. I'm still researching this, anyone know more? McRat 06-25-2005, 11:35 AM I've got the DJM 3/5 kit I'm going to attempt to install this weekend. Wish me luck! :eek: TheBac 06-25-2005, 03:07 PM I've got the DJM 3/5 kit I'm going to attempt to install this weekend.

Tom :cool: What do you think? :stick_out I actually did him a favor by stealing them):h They didn't have enough back spacing for his truck. So now he gets to buy a new set without hearing me go :blahblah: :blahblah: :blahblah: :lol: Motivational 06-29-2005, 11:04 AM DJM Kit with c-notch.http://www.motivational.net/gallery/images/lhfrdmax.jpg crewcab03 06-29-2005, 06:15 PM 1sick57, I have the 6/8 djm kit on my rig for over 40k, if I were going to do this one again I would order the 3"lower and the mcgaughys drop spindle with the rear kit. I realy dont have a bad bump steer problem, but the lower ball joints wear out fast, tech at djm said 25-30k, but napa and oriellys have them its a moog part, I dont have the tierod flip on it neither, you have to drill out the spindle hole to flip it. | ||
