I had to help CPP with the right over all legnth of the bar.. They kept sending me ( 3 times) the wrong bars.. LOL funny really..

At five you have more work in store.. depending on how you drop it.. but if the truck is going to see real hwy use I would pay close attention to pinion angles, u joints .. you know .. :)

nice looking truck. how hard was it to get the matt finish paint to lay flat? alot of times the looks streakey.

PatJ 07-19-2012 08:15 AM

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 
Yep It has the PB bolt in notch.

The truck was rattlecan flat black when I bought it and it is very streaky.
Some parts look ok but I should really paint over it and Im sure I can make it look better than the PO did.

I'm doing mine in flat blue and it covers very well, if it's streaky your not overlapping enough. It is hard to get a uniform finish if your painting bits and pieces like I am doing, each coat changes the level of "flatness".

Great look! Do you know the details on the rims? width offset?

forestb 07-26-2012 06:13 PM

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
 
They are 17X8, 4.5 inch back spacing. now that I think about it it might be a 4.5/5 drop.

Thats the style rim I was looking for as well, a 17" steel wheel and I was trying to use stock caps but that may not work. What are the tire sizes?

275/55R17 in the rear and 275/50R17 up front. I don't think the stock caps will work with them. They may have a 17" rim that will work with stock caps. They have a web sight that you can order from but it is hard to find.
