Western Chassis is their own company, not the best, not the worse. The crappiest is Chassis Tech, aka, AIM.

Also, if you plan to bag anything, do nt use chassis tech brackets, alter images brackets, fbi&#39;s shit (service blowz ass).. i recommend suicidedoors.com(greatest guy in the business.. nice, fast and prompt. Can&#39;t beat mini-trucker owned and operated) and airridetech (ART) (even tho they are expensive as fuck).

on a side note, some of the dime boys are having their belltech blocks crack on them after 6-8 months of use, please check your blocks if you are running them.

werd, you are right on that-my mistake--its chassis tech. [/b]

As far as the drop spindles go I was told not to go with them on a 99-2003 truck because they reduce the turning radius, that is why djm and western chassis only offer springs and control arms for the newer body style trucks. I have heard that western chassis has pretty good quality or am I wrong. I am still thinking about the djm 4/6 kit, the price seems real good.

western isnt bad, but they aren&#39;t the best. REally anymore, no one is the best.

Spindles you do lose a little bit of radius, but lca&#39;s, you lose ground clearence. So its a toss up.

Marc (redaddiction) had the djm kit and said it sat uneven. It could have not seated right in the spring pockets or he got a defunc kit. I am not sure.

Mabey you should cut your springs yourself&#33;

[Domeskilla]

too bad that makes them ride stiffer. a stock spring is given a certain rating and if you cut it, you are killing that rating and its ability to compress. I know you knew that, i just had to explain it for the newbies that we will get.

[RChevy.48]

If I can get a knowledgable person to help I want to do a 4/6 drop, on FSC.com everyone swears by the DJM, but I don&#39;t know I have never gone with drop kit before. I don&#39;t know any other way to drop it either. I have been trying to decide on the 2/4 or 4/6 for a long time, but thought the 2/4 would be better to start with since you don&#39;t put in a c-notch, but if I am eventualy going to go 4/6 anyway might as well save the money and do it first. Thanks for the input.

Hit me up when you get it and i&#39;ll come down and do it for you. (but i have to get a truck first)

[RChevy.48]

you got a thumb don&#39;t ya, hitch a ride. J/K, I will let you know when I get it, but it may be a while.

[Domeskilla]

No prob, the longer the wait, the closer i&#39;ll be to you. I should be living down there really soon once we get over this speedbump in a site i&#39;m building.

[RChevy.48]

Thats cool, it will still be sometime before I will be able to afford the kit. But I will definitely let you know when I do, I just saw a picture of a truck on fsc.com with a 4/6 and 18&#39;s looks great exactly what I want.
