what to replace when lowering? - 5/23/2007 6:05:07 AM    vagnozzi   Posts: 114 Joined: 2/12/2007 Status: offline Planning on lowering the Jimmy REAL soon w/ the Belltech kit, but I just want to know what is generally replaced/maintained when performing this? Are new shocks/struts reccommended? A certain type perhaps? If I'm going through the trouble of having it lowered, what else should I do to ensure I have a safe and comfortable ride? _____________________________ Vehicle: '01 GMC Jimmy SLS 2dr 4x4, 4.3 MPFI Update, remote start, 20% tint all around, blackouts, 124k Stereo: Eclipse 5504 Eclipse 5062 6-CD Profile 80x4 Profile 480x1 MTX Thunder 4500 Post #: 1
