My lowered s10 that will not stay this way!
 

I put 2" spindles & 2" springs on the front & its WAY too low! The exhaust is @ 1 1/2" off the ground right now. I think Ill put stock springs back in the front & just run the spindles. I have 4" blocks & one leaf removed. I think Ill stick the 3" blocks back in it. Now I have 2 sets of drop springs to get rid of & a set of 4" blocks. Ill list the parts for sale once I get it to sit how I like.

That thing looks good that low... but I understand if Iowa roads are anything like Missouri roads. :D

McDonald's must be a b!tch down that far.
I agree, bring it up a notch.

Raise exhaust and leave it! Looks good. My '91 has 2" spindles, 3" springs (4.3) with Belltech 3" drop leaves and 3" blocks for a total of a 5"/6" drop. You just need to get good clearance everywhere. It will be fine. I do need a c-notch in the back, though. I like your truck just the way it is.

I planned that at first but I noticed it is already sitting down on the bump stops. If I cut or take them out it will drop even more. The way I have been measuring it, its 6" in the front. I bought a set of zq8 springs for the front last night. Ill just have to wait until they get here & change them then. Should end up closer to 4" then. I drove it a little yesterday & it rode like crap. It does look pretty cool just sitting there though...

I think it looks good like that.Just buy a back brace, and one of those neck collars lol. I've got a 5/6 drop on my 82 4 cyl springs with a V8, 3inch blocks and 3 inch rear springs. It was a daily driver until I couldnt afford the gas anymore. It rides better than stock usualy. Except pot holes really suck , a lot lol. I think the rear springs make it ride better they are a lot softer than the stockers.

When my truck was static dropped I had 2 inch spindles with 3 inch springs and they were also cut to go another 2 inches. In the rear was a 3inch leaf and 4 inch blocks. Talk about a PITA to drive. I would say the West Virginia roads have all of yours beat.. LOL

Truck looks good that low. If you take it to a exhaust shop they can build you a new Y pipe to hug the tranny a little closer. If not it will just get crushed and leak really bad.

Re: My lowered s10 that will not stay this way!
 

Thats exactly what happened. I put zq8 (v6) springs in it now. Much happier...
