That would be awesome if they started to offer those.

Nice to see they are coming up with solutions. I’m really looking forward to seeing what BellTech is going to come up with. Hopefully in the next couple of months.

I’m sure BellTech’s Kit will be pricey, but hopefully it will be done right with all issues taken into consideration. They told me late May for pre-orders. We will see.

Other than the slight out of alignment issue. With those ucas should fix. I haven’t had any other problems.

Although I bet the ride and handling would improve with these

Also took some measurements with no air in the bags vs 10psi since I never measured with 0psi

With 0psi the rear sits .25in lower than with 10psi

I just did the MaxTrac/Spohn combo on mine. I did 1.5” up front and 3” rear. Did you notice any difference side to side? My passenger side sits 3/8”-1/2” higher than the driver side on front and back. I figured fuel tank accounted for back, but can’t figure out why on front. Reconfirmed that the same 1.5” slots are the same on both sides.

I'm running Maxtrac front struts set at 3" in this pic the rear is IHC control arm relocators and IHC springs trimmed down Maxtrac track bar bracket. I'm currently changing it up and adding front air struts IHC 4" drop control arms and Timber grove rear 7" bag kit..

Soward,

I assume you will be using the CRMs from Timber Grove. Please keep us updated on your experience. I want to do a 3/5 drop, but I don’t want to loose towing capabilities. I’m considering using IHC parts in the front and Timber Grove 6” CRMs in the rear. I’m thinking I can just keep the bags inflated enough to keep it level. I’m concerned though that this will cause a stiff or bouncy ride. Maybe Steven can make a 5” CRM. I’m also still curious to see what Bel Tech will be releasing in late May.
