lowering
Bell Tech is supposed to come up with a lowering kit toward the end of this year. They are working on it now. Hopefully they can do it without killing the ride. I had their kit on a 96 Impala SS and it didn't seriously effect the ride quality. No one here has anything stellar to say about the resulting ride quality from the other 2 kits.

I've got the McGaughy 2/4 deluxe kit on mine and have no issues with it. The spindles in the front retain the stock coil springs so it doesn't change the ride. They do increase the track a bit.
What will the Bell Tech be 2/3, 2/4, springs in the front? I like the McGaughys because they have a track bar relocation bracket for the rear which keeps the rear end centered.

Sorry no pics yet, I just installed it on Saturday and haven't even got an alignment yet. I drove it home from the In-Laws (he has the shop) which is about 200 miles all interstate. The kit made the truck feel a bit more sporty in that it will handle the curves without all the body roll.

BTW, my wife had taken a couple of pictures of the truck on Saturday after I installed the drop.
