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

Here is a pic of the truck with cut coils before I started all the work. It rode great. Maybe the 3/4 tons dont I have no idea on that. but the 1/2 tom with 1.5 or 2 coil cut rode fine. Been too long to know how much I trimmed off.

It has 84 Chevy upper and lower control arms with the stock cross member. 2 1/2" dropped spindles and 3" springs. The rear has a 84 Chevy rear end and I made a set of trailing arms with 3" springs and 2" blocks.

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

Someone asked for a side view, this is the best I got right now. It is a leaf spring rearend, I am in the process of switching it over to a 5 bolt pattern so it is on jack stands right now. I have a 2 inch further drop in the rear to level it out.

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

What did you do to lower yours, looks great !!

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