1978 nova/apollo/omega/ventura front clip, Stock

1969 Firebird rearend , shorten coil springs about 2 inches

Not too low, still able to drive it, but low enough that the other day I pulled into a parking space and hit a walmart water bottle that was standing up right 16.9oz

Also next to a stock Ford Ranger, my hood and finders are still lower than it

Same here...

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

You can't cut the Jeep springs because of the tapered ends?

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

The bumper is a stock 60-66 bumper. It actually has changed in the fact that I added Chrome Bumper Guards. I know that doesn't sound good but the factory bumper guards look the old Caddy bumper guards. I'll post an updated pic.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Here is the updated pics of the Bumper Guards added to the stock bumper. I can't tell you how tough these were to get wrap around these bumpers. Save yourself time and loosen all Bumper Bolts. Each has two mounting points and you will have to tighten each slightly at a time until top and bottom come tight to the bumper. If you want this look. Little old school look and it's starting to grow on me!

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

4.5" front / 5" rear. I used 2" springs and 2.5" drop spindles in front and 4" springs along with 1" blocks in rear. Wheels are 18"x8"s and 20"x10"s.

Sorry for the poor picture quality, I took it with my phone on a day it was trying to rain. We had just thrashed on the truck 17 straight hours to finish it after starting it five years ago.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

So beautiful.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Awesome truck. what is that on the tailgate and can we get a closer photo of it?

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

The bed is boxed in - solid tail piece (no tailgate). The panels are aluminum that I had machined to match the fins on an M/T Valve Cover. Panels are recessed into the tail piece. I'll see If I have a better pic and will post.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Few more pics.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!

4-6 drop

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Sweet.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

I'm posting again, at least I think I already posted, because I've learned more about what is actually under it since the trade...

Drop spindles -2.5" cheap single piston...I think 75 mm, stops alright tho.
Drop springs? Still unsure but the front cross member is only about 3.5-4 inches from the ground.
9" ford rear end with leaf springs under Axel tubes
Air shocks with the upper mount relocated(not enough imo)
There's prolly 2"-3.5" depending on psi in air shock between Axle tube and frame. Also the same distance between to of rear end housing and floor. If the shocks are empty or low it'll bottom out but it does good when there's a lil psi added. She does lean to the back passenger side a lil, I'm assuming it's just worn leaf springs..?..
Anyway, I want to get seat belts, then some good sway bars for sure.
