    What is the best way to do a 4/6 and a couple other q's

    I did a searchc and couldn't find what i was looking for, my question is what is the best way to do a 4/6 drop. My current setup is a flip kit in the rear and then spindles and springs in the front, now is lowering the front with springs/arms better or arms/spindles than my current setup as far as suspension geometry and performance/durability? Also i have had my drop for about a year and have noticed recently it seems to bottom out way easier than before, i talked to beltech and they said i won't have any problems bottoming out if i change my shocks to the nitro active instead of the nitro drops, they say that is why i am bottoming out.. just wondering what you guys thought

    depending on manufacturer, the setup you have now is the best "simple" design for the 88-98's. I would recommend getting out of the belltech shocks though, and into a set of Bilstein Sport's or Edelbrock IAS's, you will find a HUGE difference in ride quality. also, a good set of rear shock extenders does wonders.

    I wish people were like slinkys, fun to play with but when I get bored I can push them down the stairs.
