Here's my 65, CPP drop springs and spindles.... close to being done.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Oh, this is so hot. I'd add some pin striping to give it that edge I like. But regardless, this is one bad mofo.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Well, I just traded for the truck so I'm still checking stuff out but it does have cpp discs in front with coils that look new and 225/70/15. The back is leaf with air shocks on a 9" and Mt Indy n-50s. Nothing fancy but she sits good.
P.s. thanks for having me.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

What size tires are you running on that thing? Looks great!

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Thanks Calvin! Nice Truck! Great Color.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Fronts are 255/50-18's on 8" wheels and rears are 295/45-20's on 10" wheels. Thanks!

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Did the rears fit with no tub?

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Yes, the rear wheel tubs are stock. I did trim about 3/4" from the lip on the wheel well opening. From the factory there's close to an inch and a half lip so there's still plenty material left. If I remember right the wheels are 4 1/2" backspacing. I used the factory rear end, I just had the axles redrilled to five lug. A lot of people swap to a '71/'72 rearend which is wider and in which case would probably need a 5" backspaced wheel. There's not a lot of clearance but enough. I really like the 10" wheel but didn't want to widen the tubs, this combination works well.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Cut coils all round with 2"blocks in the rear 1966 c20

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Here's mine! Three inch drop springs and 1 and 1/2 blocks in the rear with 2.5 inch drop spindles with 1 coil cut.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

This is my longbox 66. I'm not big on bags, I like to see them lowered but not touching the ground, in my humble opinion Some rake is important too.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Coming from somebody that doesn't typically gravitate toward long bed trucks, that's a great looking truck! Love the stance as well. :metal:

While I personally don't feel the need for a ground scraper myself, I will say that bags can be utilized to achieve a killer rake as well. Perfect example would be Dino's blue '66: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=556602

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

rustbucket66 - sharp looking truck!!! What the specs on your drop and tire sizes? That's about how I want my 66 longbed to sit.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Hey Awesome looking truck, I love it. what kind of wheels are those? can u share the tire / wheels set up?

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Nice looking truck, & looks like an awesome shop setup as well!

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 

Thanks fellas. The wheels are Appliance tru-spoke fine wires, 15x10 in the back and 15x8 in the front. I've had them for years and they were pretty rusty so I had them repaired and respoked. Appliance has been out of business for years. I can't find a new wheel that is the same. Tires are 295's x50's in the back and 245'sx50's in the front, but I think I will go to a 60 series tire in the front. The front is dropped 4 1/2 inches - 2 1/2inch drop spindles and 2 inch drop springs. The back is dropped 4 inches with 4" drop springs.
