Thanks man! I think that a long bed that has been lowered and has a very flat stance (with little or no rake) is a pretty cool look.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Beautiful truck. Awesome job.

It's amazing how much wheels make all the difference.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

rusty1962, man you got it right in that 3rd pic. The stance looks good and as mentioned, those wheels make a difference.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Thanks, Lot of work already done you can't see but Still Long way to Go!!!

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

My 66. 2 1/2" drop spindles and 2" drop springs in the front, and 4" drop springs in the rear.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

My truck has CPP 3" lowered springs which I cut a coil and a half off. The rear has CPP 5" lowered springs with 2" blocks as well. From what I can tell I have the 5/7 drop.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Tires and wheels look perfect. What size?

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Thanks! They're 225/70/15's. I'm also using 2"wheel spacers to push the tires out closer to the fenders

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Do you have c notch in the rear frame

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Yeah. It has a CPP C notch kit.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Very nice.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Just got it out after a long, cold winter. 2/4 drop using lowered coil springs.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Looks good.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

5" drop springs out back, 2 1/2" drop spindles and 2" drop springs in the front.
Other than a stiff ride in the rear, its great. I plan to keep th rear springs since I use it as a truck and haul stuff still. If anything I may throw a bit of weight back there to soften the ride a bit. Ill likely be putting in at least a 1" block in the rear as well. I like the rake, but its just a bit much.

Did 3.5 front springs used rear springs for an a-body adjustable track bar rides good

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Front has '85 crossmember swap with 2 1/2" drop spindles and 2" drop springs. Rear has '70 rear axle swap with Jeep Wrangler coils and 1" block.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

hey ---- would the truck (black stepside) ? possibly be 4 sale ? Thanks in advance

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Previous owner had cut some coils (not sure how much) on front and rear. Just added 2.5 inch drop spindles. Front is way low - like an inch off the bumpstops. Bottoms out and tires rub when turning (but just barely). For those that said they cut them off, what shocks did you use? Also, I am taking suggestions for what size drop coils for the rear. I am thinking 3".

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Perfect ....You nailed it! :metal:

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

I put the 5 inch from CPP on the rear and It looks an drives good no c notch, with adjustable track bar and spings with re-locator kit.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Camaro sub frame front end (4 inch drop). CPP 5" drop coils for the rear. :metal:

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Looks sweet low6four

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

CPP 3/5 with 1 coil cut up front. Adjustable track bar and rear shock relocation kit. After the 1 coil removal up front she was resting on rubber stops so out the stops came. She rides good and I might remove the front stop perch for some more travel.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
 

Here's another shot.

Yes, I have a 6 lug 2 1/2 drop spindle that I got from classic parts 1-800-741-1678, you can also get them from LMC, Brothers, classic auto parts
