Hey man quick question, what is your ride height set at in this picture? I plan on running 22's on my 72 and I want it to sit just like this with coilovers.

Porterbuilt is coming out with his new coil over set up front and rear soon and the ride height will be 6" from the bottom of the frame to the ground at the front cab mount, at least this is what I've read. I'm sure in your picture the truck is sitting lower than that but I hope I am wrong because yours is sitting perfect :ito:

Let you know tonight. I have been super buisy. Putting the glass in the truck tonight and I will get you pics.

It looks pretty close to the 6" ride height our coil-over kit will achieve.

Truck looks AMAZING Eric!!!!!!

When will the coil over set up be available? Love your product, and this truck. Maybe I can be too cool in Canada one day.

Sorry guys trying to get the bugs worked out of the truck before I post video. I lost a rocker arm on the drivers side head. So I had to pull of the valve cover and fix it. Also made some changes to the drive shaft. So I
will get pics and video as soon as the bugs are worked out of the truck.

Just make sure you go with a billet carrier bearing. I ruined mine. Thanks Eric

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
 
so you are talking cpp billet one? the x-member is pre drilled for the other carrier bearing that bolts across the width of the xmember. the cpp billet one bolts lenth wise which would mean you have to drill new holes right? Or did you ask Nate to see if that would work fine with his xmember? I have the oem one that he suggest but wanted the cpp billet one, maybe it twist to much because that mount pad is not that thick. Just a thought.

No this is not the issue I was having. I re drilled the cross member for the straight one. I moved the center cross member forward the other day because the wheels were not perfectly centered in the rear they were back by a quarter of an inch. When I moved it forward and drop the truck all the way with the bew location. I put lateral pressure on the carrier bearing and ruined it. It was my bad. I also spaced the carrier bearing up because it has an odd angle. The truck is fixed now so I will get some video and let you know. Later Eric

Thanks man so am I, the night before I went out with Mario and he stomped on it. We are lucky it did not break while we were moving. I get the truck back tomorrow. So we will see when I get it back from the engine shop.
