Default Belltech lowering

anyone in here using their products?
I'm in contact with a guy there but the antisway bars he's listed are for the 97+ trucks on the webpage. According to their personal webpage I can only get 1 product from them. I know this is obviously a web page design flaw but I'd like to know what else they have. I'm looking at the 2/4 drop with shocks and springs and the anti-sway bars so far.

I would go with the 3/5 with dropped I-beams and a flip kit.

guy from belltech was saying that because I intend to run a certain size tire that the larger drop wouldn't be recommended.

was thinking that a 355 would be nice out back but I've told him if I need to run less for more drop that it would be ok with me.

Truck needs whatever they have in terms of autocross > drag. Not saying it wont hit the strip once in awhile but I'm a big time corner carver.

funny but they dont carry a 3/5.
Quote: The guys on the forums might be a little wrong we do not offer a 3/5 kit for your application with our flip kit.


They carry a 2/4, 3/4 and 4/6 kit.

The 4/6 is the flip kit,

THE 3/4 KIT COME WITH (#961SP)
-3 inch drop spindles, I beams
-shackle hanger kit in the rear to do the 4 inch drop
-all 4 street performance shocks.

The 2/4 Kit comes with (#924SP)
Shocks, springs, hangers

DJM offers the 3/5 setup that most were talkin about... I have read a lot of threads on here regarding drop kits and most say DJM were the best for our specific truck. I was looking into lowering my 91 2WD but now it is no longer my truck since I got an 07 F250.

Ah yes that would be helpful info to know of another company since this thread was labelled belltech lol.

I will now check into them...

You guys with the DJM kits, how is the handling on them?
