My buddy has a 2006 chevy 2wd pickup and he wants to level it cause it sits ass high. What would yall suggest

I would suggest the lowering shackles for the rear. If he wants it lower, the 4-6 would make it look great. Although I'm pretty sure you're asking how to raise the front. I have no idea how to do that, because that's gay.

I did daystar coilspacers on my 97 a long time. worked pretty good.

yeah he wants to raise it up, although it would look cool dropped but that makes driving in the pasture kinda hard

if he ever loads stuff in the bed it will look goofy with the front pointed up in the air. if i level mine, it'll be lowering the rear.

Jimmy, did you have your old truck dropped at all? If so how much, how did it ride, price?

I just had lowering shackles, set it level, but it made a big difference on looks imo. Didn't effect ride.

Cool, I've been planning on lowering mine but then again the thought of baggin' it is very tempting.

I think a lot of people convert to Ford torsion bar keys to level Chevy 1500s, but I don't know if a 2006 is the same...

Torsion bars are on 4wd's only... Just get some coil spacers.

My 1500 is 2wd and has torsion bars... Maybe he has one of the special ones like mine... :D

It's a 2003... 1500HD

:flipoff2:

I was thinking about HDs, didn't realize that he may have been talking about a regular 1500/2500...

I would just crank them. I replaced my keys and in the end I think it's the exact same thing. Just crank them up and get longer front shocks. I think the replacement keys are a waste.
