You Knew it was going to happen and here it is!!! I think this is the easiest to follow and best how to lower sierra / silverado how to on youtube. I tried to show every step in detail so it can be done in your driveway with hand tools. The only thing that may fight you are the rivets in the lower a arms and ball joints. You can remove the lower a arms and take to a shop for them to drill or push out the rivets out. I decided to go with Mcgaughys and glad I did. The truck rides great after lowering and drives amazing. It looks AMAZING TOO!!! In this video I show install of lowering springs, drop spindles, flip kit, Shock extenders, shackles, ball joints and a arms. Let me know if you have any questions. I am just getting started on this truck and have way more to come.
Hit the comments and let me know what you think......

You can put the helper bags and put separate schrader valves for left and right so you can individually set heights. In fact if you had the lowering shackles on BOTH rear sides, you could pump up the left rear bag a little bit more than the right to compensate for the Chevy Lean

Had that Chevy lean when i dropped my S10 5" front 6" out back and found the end links on the sway bar are unequal lengths-solved the problem using a bolt the same length and leveled the front out-reason why they use unequal lengths is so the vehicle will pull to the right slightly in case you fall asleep behind the wheel your ride will go off the road instead of into oncoming traffic.

Great job, most informative and thorough video on the topic of lowering a NBS gm truck. You have way more patience than I do. I wanted to throw stuff when doing the lower ball joints on my truck. How is the ride with the lowered coil springs? I am leaning towards lowered control arms as opposed to spindles and springs. Thoughts?

Looks good! I have a 02 Silverado I did a 2-4 mcgaughys drop, which was 2" spindles in the front and shackles and hangers in the back. I also have a Chevy lean on mine as well. Do you think if I 3" on one side and 4" on the other will help level it out?

Great video, planning on installing this kit on mine soon...is there any reason to be concerned that when the lower ball joint sits on top of control arm, there's alot of upward force on the bolts? As opposed to pushing against the control arm itself like when it's actually in the pocket.
@TWAMotorsports

No concern in my opinion. It's on top so most pressure is down

4wd in this body style can get that low but the ride may not be great. Spindles and keys up front. Flip in the rear. Front shafts may not like it though

Great video man. Thinking of doing this to my 2000 Sierra. Previous owner lowered it in a sketchy way and the suspension is horrible and the handling is just terrible. It is too damn bouncy and drives like crap. Thank you for posting this. Was a bit lost on where and how to start but this helps greatly.

Do the drop spindles mess with the caster or push the wheels further out from the center of the truck? Have been told to stay away from drop spindles at all costs, thoughts?

watching you with the rivets made me laugh. Years ago after trying to cut the heads off with a chisel for more than a hour, my ex came out, looked at what I was trying to do, stated why don't you drill them out! Center punched rivet, 1/4" bit and 15 minutes later all rivets were out. Great video. Gonna drop my 88 shortly. Owned since 91

Do you think i will have any problems somewhere down the road if i try to drop it. With shackles? Or how would you go about dropping the truck?

I've been a Tech since 2000. I've had that exact same assembly apart more times than I could ever remember. Even the 4wd setup has only 1 more nut (axle nut). I think you did an outstanding job displaying a way that most people can do at home. Did you remember to notch out the upper control arm bolt holes for camber/caster adjustment? There is a really cool tool that does it with a 7'8 wrench. Take care Brother. Great job! -Derek-

If you are installing Belltech shocks that are meant for trucks with 5-7 drops do you still need to install the shock extenders? Since those shocks are shorter then stock ?

I like to use both. The extender does more than make the shock travel. It also gets the operating angles back in line after dropping.
