Belltech or DJM would be my choices. I sell more DJM for these trucks than I do Belltech due to price.

How come DJM only has spindles for 92-98 3500's What changed from 88-91?

I see the DJM 5 - 7 kit on ebay for $799.99 with shocks. Is that the one to get? Any better deals out there?

i ordered my 5/8 belltech drop from 4 wheel parts. i think it was $950 and it took almost a month to get it without paying for freight.

The $799 kit is probably without shocks. $950 sounds like it comes with shocks. We normally sell the kits with shocks shipped for $1050 or so depending on where they are going in the country.
88-91 were still the 1 ton Squarebody style trucks. I think that they started the NBS style in 1990 with split year builds.

Thats what i am trying to figure out .. but either nobody knows or the people that do are not telling .... OR .... the people that know have not seen this thread yet. I have built alot of lifted trucks and know the differences in kits and who's coils are better ext. but i have only lowered one truck and i used hotchkis for that build.

The kit with shocks is still close to our pricing with shipping. Give me a zip code and I can get you an exact shipping cost along with a total.
All of the 92-2000 3500s are the same suspensions for the most part. In the 88-91, they built both old and new body style trucks in 2500 and 3500 series.
