Yea but those come with the springs up front. If u want the best ride go with the lowering struts up front and keep the oem coils. Will drop around 2 in. With a great ride. I said djm for rear cuz it'll drop u 4" instead of 3". U might wanna buy a set of upper control arms too(for the front). The stock arms won't let u align properly. A shop can get it close but ur upper ball joints will hate u. The djm arms are longer so u can get the correct alignment and won't go thru tires. And the ball joints will love u.

Hey jrSS can you have a look at my thread about Ball Joint Questions and give me your thoughts?

Sorry Ghost, thanks guys.

How much is all this going to set me back at ?

 

[jrSS]

Control arms $350 from tony (norcal SS) don't actually need but I would


Belltech struts $100 a piece (only need 2)

Coils for rear round $200 (maybe)

Belltech street perf. Shocks $60 a piece (2)

Your 2 wheel drive so u could get the djm kit for less it comes with the control arms. Contact norcal ss. Maybe he has a deal going on. Here's my od ride 06 envoy with all belltech kit.

I didn't have the a arms but tires were going a lil on the inside. Out like 1 degree and balljoints were at a severe angle.
