I think I've read just about every post asking for suggestions on which drop to purchase, pros and cons of each, and they usually all end with the same conclusion... go DJM, lol! I'm looking for an apples to apples type discussion for a front drop only. Blocks are blocks out back (We can talk about the SS composite leafs later ).
SS Drop consists of higher rate drop springs. SoS is new spring perches using stock springs. From what I gather SS has a firmer ride and is less prone to bottoming out due to the higher spring rate, and the SoS feels stock but can bottom out due to the reduced travel.
Which of the two allows for more camber adjustment/correction? Literally, I think I've seen every possible answer for this :laugh:. Concern being that I plan on running a staggered setup and a 9.5" wide wheel up front and don't want to be buying tires as often as I hit up Taco Bell for my fourth meal.
How much of a drop is it really? SS is advertised as 1.75" and SoS as 1.5". I've read that each is anywhere between 1.5"-2".
Bump Steer... I've read that either kit can induce unwanted bump steer, mainly as a function of too much negative camber. Also, I've read that the stiffer the springs, the more this is an issue. Not sure how much of any of all this is true, but something I haven't really seen anything definitive on.
How do each pair up with a set of SS Composite Leafs w/QA1's in back?
I'm positive either is a solid choice, I'm just stuck at work reading right now and was curious is all.
