Best place to get a lowering kit
I would like to get a 3-5 lowering kit, but i would like 3 inch drop spindles and a 5 inch flip kit. Where would be the best place to get one like that. The truck is an 87 2wd.

You should play the lotto. You are a very luck man.

Re: Best place to get a lowering kit
When I worked in the dealership I was the guy who lowered trucks that we put on the lot to catch people's attention. I got the parts for every one of them from Summit. There was a time I was doing two 4/6 drops a week. Probably a 100 trucks total.
No one has cheaper prices than Summit has. If you find a cheaper price just call them and they will beat it by 10 percent. Plus, any order from Summit has a 12 dollar handling charge and that's it, no shipping costs. That is a bargain. If you order spindles, flip kit, and other stuff from someone else you are going to pay over 50 bucks shipping costs.

Re: Best place to get a lowering kit
I like Summit, but Stylin' Trucks is running a sale on a DJM 3/5 kit like you are talking about. Also if you use the coupon code: STYLESHIP shipping is free.

Re: Best place to get a lowering kit
x2 on JohnC's comment. I think I might order my kit from Stylin Trucks in the next month. Too bad they don't give you the C-notches as well for the $ 340 price.............
