BellTech rear lowering kit available soon

I called BellTech's technical department today asking for the availability of a rear lowering kit for my Nissan www.usantonio.com/busrtsphoto2A.htm 4x4 CC and was told to call back in January as they are about done with the design phase of the kit. Probably out for public purchase early next year. I personally would like to lower the rear 2-3 inches versus raising the front 2-3 inches or is there a large group out there who would leave the suspension the way it is? A poll of individual preference would be nice to know. Cast your ballots

I would be interested in lowering the rear as well. I don't offroad, no towing, and no heavy hauling planned. I bought the 4X4 truck for the looks and the harsh New England winters (traded in my 04 Maxima with only 16k miles). I don't think lowering the rear end would affect the winter performance at all. What about the factory warranty? Would it void any part of it?

Shim the differential??

I was going to do this to my Tundra,but I sold it before getting around to it.Will-should-we shim the differential?I read several Tundra threads that suggested that the differential should be shimmed to compensate for the rear drop;they suggested that with an unshimmed differential the change in angle would cause excess wear over time.Others suggested that a 2" drop was too little to worry about?Charlie

I also have been looking to lower the rear by use of shackles, but no one makes them for the Titan, yet. This is good news! Thanks for the info...
