Best kit to lower Avalanche

[farmtruc]

Hey guys, does anyone know of a kit that will allow me to lower the Av but retain the comfortable driving it currently has??
I do not want to sacrifice any ride quality it has now, that is very imporant.

I want to lower the Av about 1/3 or whatever it takes to make it look right.

any suggestions are appreciated!

There are TONS of threads on CAFCNA about this. Sorry, I&#39;ve never done any research on lowering one.

i&#39;ve heard bad things about coils for silverados.. i would think the av isn&#39;t much different. i&#39;d personally look at something without them. or at least research the problems/concerns with coils for our trucks.

belltech makes a great 3" drop, leaf spring lowering kit that i&#39;m interested in purchasing. i&#39;ve been recommended them from a few installers.

Just FWI, 02-06 Avalanches are t-bar front suspension and coil spring rear. 2007 AV&#39;s use coils on both ends. The Avalanche is built on a &#39;burb chassis not a Silverado.

belltech is the "best" in quality and longevityif you want to retain th emost comfterble ride i would go with them. i have a djm 2 4 and its smooth but then again i have hotchkis swaybars also. so im not sure about them. but its held up with out a problem. i reccomend belltech . my friend has a belltech 2 4, same truck as mine 05rcsb and his rides liek stock.

hope this helps
