Lowering a GMC Sonoma

My buddy has a 97 sonoma..he has lowering springs for it that will lower it approximatly 3 inches, or so he says. I know nothing about trucks...is he going to need to replace the shocks or will the stock ones hold up? i know there hasta be somebody on here with knowledge of this...

 

Meh, that's the cheap way of dropping a truck, he may as well cut the springs if he's going to do that.

Idealy, he should buy a good kit that includes drop spindles, progressive coils, mono leafs & gas shocks.

 

^^^ Yep, if he is interested in keeping ANY sort of ride quality.

 

YES

trust me, i know the cheap way sucks


although, i was a BIT lower than 3 inches


you can find the complete kits for like $500 including everything

 

s10

cheap way.. but 3 inches isn't much for an s10. you won't lose much ride quality.

 

cool. thanks guys..i'll pass that along
