    Question static drop Q's

    Hey I have a 90'ECSB with a 4/4 drop. Up front I have 2" drop spindles and 2" drop coils and out back I have 2" drop hangers and 2" drop shakles and suspension by DJM. I want to know if I get 3" drop leafs in the back and put a huge notch in the frame if i will run into pinion angle issues? and wat do u think about a 4/7 drop or should i go with a 5/8 but i dont know how to get another 4" in the back with out going back to factory shakles or hangers and putting a flip kit in.

    i'd had 5/7 and 5/8 in my truck and the 5/8 makes the back end sit just a tad too low in my opinion. i would go with 5/7

    Whatever you do to get lower you should put the factory hangers back on. If you try and do any "combo" deals to get lower w/ the hangers you will have driveline issues.

    Go 5-7 after putting the stock hangers back on.
