Re: fatman xmember and stuff??
right now i have CPP 2/4" drop coils and shocks - this brought the rear down nicley (rear tire is about an inch tucked under side lip) but really didnt do much to the front other than stiffen it up and take the 'boat turn' feel out of it. I was gonna just live with it like this until this whole idea popped up.
I would like to have the truck sit as low as possible and still remain driveable without bags. Fatman replied to me overnight and they say their xmember will drop 6-8" from stock c10 height using the mII drop spindles. This sounds about perfect as currently my bumper is still 9-10" off the ground with the drop coils.
As for the rear - I'm apt to leave where is until I really see what happens with the front - I like these trucks in all stances; raked, tail draggin, and flat, so Im not sure - I think it really depends on what the front end does.
I have also left questions for Fatman this morning to verify if I did the xmember swap, could I leave stock steering components in place instead of moving to a rack - this would save even more money, as then I would only need the xmember and new rotors. And if thats the case, I think I will most definlty pursue this as getting 8 inch drop and disc conversion for this truck with only having to grab the xmember and a set of rotors would be KILLER - at least what I see at this point - guess a master cylinder also, but you get the idea
