nnbs crew cab 5/8 drop?

[lowlife08]

im wanting to do a 5/8 drop on my crew cab i was guna do control and the adjustable strut but ive read alot that the control arms arent any good is this true? so im thinking about jus getting spindles springs and adjustable struts who is running this set up and can you get it to align?

I believe mine was like 1 or 2 degrees off, I had Mcg spindles and 2" drop coils with the Belltech adj struts set at -1". I recently set my struts at 0 which would be like the factory struts and I haven't had a chance to take it to get it aligned yet. I'd really like to get a set of control arms to get back down to 5" in the front.

I wouldn'e use the DJM flip either. Get arms and McG flip kit. I think Tony presses new BJ's in the arms he sells. I Had 5/7 with McG spindles, reloators and a trimmed coil. Was barely out of specs on alignment and rode pretty good. I just see everyone else that uses control arms love them and i know you'll want 6/9 soon after you do 5/8 lol

You will be able to align with struts,springs and spindles but from the feedback we have received not as good luck when it comes to control arms. Now that we carry McG's and I have seen the flip kit next to Belltech I still stand behind Belltech's flip kit being a better product. The quality is nicer and it comes with the parts you need to keep the driveline angle correct. The Belltech crew cab is about 5/8 drop.
