Re: Those with ECE 2" drop in front
That's with 275/60/15's on the rear and 255/60/15's on the front. And also 255/35/20's all the way around. Which if you put 20's on it, don't put that size tire on 'em. I just bent 2 of those and that's why the 15's are back on it. I think I like it better anyways. ECE 2.5" drop spindles and 2" drop springs on the front and 6" drop springs on the back. Relocated all the shock mounts and put on shorter shocks and an adjustable pan hard bar. Last edited by olskoolchevy; 04-03-2010 at 04:48 PM. Reason: Add on |

Re: Those with ECE 2" drop in front
Stance looks good. I would love to put mine that low but I want to use it to tow the boat once in a while. I like the 15's and sport mirrors better than the peeps and 20's

Re: Those with ECE 2" drop in front
Just got my DJM springs from Summit. That was fast and Saturday delivery to boot. I just ordered them late in the evening 2 days ago and had them shipped ground. Guess tomorrow will tell the tale.

Re: Those with ECE 2" drop in front
Got the DJM springs in today and the truck sits exactly where it should with a 2" drop. The only conclusion that can be drawn is that the original springs I got from Coil Spring Specialties have an issue. Stan @ ECE is going to send me a return label and credit me for the front springs. ECE is a stand up outfit. I would do business with them in a heart beat. Coils spring specialties, Now that is another story.
I'm glad this one is finally over. Now I can focus on the rear disc brake conversion. I'll post some pics later. |

Re: Those with ECE 2" drop in front
Thanks 73. Me too.
How it sits as of right now. Pretty much right where I wanted it. Sorry the pic is a little dark. It was overcast here this morning.

Re: Those with ECE 2" drop in front
Took ECE two tries to get my front springs right, but they fianlly came thru as well. It was the their fault the first time (ordered wrong spring from supplier) and the second one was the suppliers fault (sent the wrong spring). Anyway the supplier ultimately owned up and sent the springs next day air, and ECE did all the arm twisting - I didn't even have to mention it.
I am impressed the ECE's customer service and I'll definitely use them again. I'm glad you finally made it through your ordeal. On to the next one now.... |
