3/5 drop Bell tech, djm, or Western chassis????bh

I was just looking at suspsensions trying to figure out the best kit to drop my qc.. I am looking for a nice low stance with good handling. but not a back killer. if it rides just a bit firmer than my 97 grand am gt.. that would be optimal..
I want to add a rear sway and probly a front sway from a durango .. or a hotchkiss sway all around.

I look at the belltech and it does not have arms.. the djm and western kit both provide new lowers.. the western even claims to improve bump steer..

any input would be great here guys?
Thanks

be sure to check on your rear axle size, I'm trying to drop my Quad, but I have the bigger axle 9.25(same as the R/T). I think this may only apply if you use blocks.

i have a 3/5 djm drop on my dakota its a 97 regular cab the frint rides like dream other than the tire rub when i hit a bump, but that will be solved with diffrent tires, the back rides like crap it set like than an inch from the bump stops and is a back breaker, if you wan tto lower the rear 5 inches i suggest fetting a frame notch even thought it is not required

Any drop you do make sure you make clearence for it or itl ride like shit.Be careful with your truck cause depending how low you go you could run into some serious difficulties.I know 4 in drop will clear fine in the rear 5 is dam close,small notch needed and you will be close to thhe cab with driveshaft clearence cause you have a qc.

that is what we call spam...you can report the user (which is usually a pc). report them by clicking the star in the left of their post (and type in that its spam mail)

this happens everyonce and a while..just report it and let the moderators take care of banning the user
