    NBS RCSB smoother ride and possibly 2/4 drop.

    Like the title says I am looking for a better ride. I have a 00 rcsb with 2" drop shackles. What can I do to for that smoother ride with 305/40/22rims. In the future I would like to do a 2/4 drop but do not know if I should do a c-notch or the hangers. I have read some of the other articles but jst no sure. I will not sell the truck but would like to keep it stock. Jt dont want to send it to a shop and get screwed or jacked up c-notch.

    Most sports require one ball, motocross requires two.

    Racing isn't a matter of life and death, it's much more important than that.

    With my 2/4 i ran edlebrock ias shocks i was extremely happy with them. I used the djm rear and cut v6 springs up front.
    I still have the ias shocks. Only have 30k on them if your interested

    If you don't want bags ride won't really be much better with any other setup, lose the 22's and it will greatly improve. Coilovers or good adjustable shocks can help.

    was thinking of getting the belltech shocks, and redoing all the joints, tierods, and swaybar bushing with moog or energy suspension. Along with adding the drop springs and the rear hangers.

    Dang I forgot about that. I might go that route but I should get the spindles and not use the drop springs?
