hairlesshobo, my truck is lowered about 6" in front(3" spindles and cut coils), 8" rear(flipped and hangers moved up).

81Psychobilly, I don't have any, but beadlocks would look great on it.

Franky, right now I have stock replacement front shocks all the way around it. Gotta do some research and find a good set of drag shocks that will fit.

What kind of rims were your 15s? I really like the looks of those. They remind me of the American Racing wheels that I had on my Trans Am.

Bolted right up. They are shorter than stock rears, so they work with the drop. I won't be able to get pics til the weekend.

That's a shame cause I really liked those. Maybe I can find a used set online and pick them up in a couple months.

I used 3inch DJM drop spindles in the front and cut a full coil so gave me about 5 inch drop in the front and just did the flip kit in the rear gave me about 5 1/2 drop in the rear. I can still take speed bumps and dipped driveways she rides awesome.
