Arrow My lowered 86 C10
Got my truck put together a few months ago and finally took some pictures. Also painted a bunch of the stuff under the hood but I don't currently have any pictures. Let me know what you think.

Re: My lowered 86 C10
very nice and clean, love the wheels, only thing I'd change is the white walls. Now raised white letters yea, but not a fan of white walls, thick or thin.

Re: My lowered 86 C10
I like the lowered look and white paint. I like the black wall out. It has to much white showing for that type of wheel. Just my 2 cents worth!

Re: My lowered 86 C10
I like it. Is this the one you had built the frame for? Or did you sell that frame?

It's lowered like 6/8 or something like that. Spindles & cut coils in the front..flip kit and hangers in the rear.

I agree. The wheel and tire combo suits it well.

My '86 also looks better in photos than in person!

Re: My lowered 86 C10
Thanks guys.

I'm not sure if I should leave the stance or lay the truck on the ground. I need to do a few things body wise before I do that though.


Does anyone know of/remember that thread that had the link to NOS GM front bumpers?
