Lowered Truck?

I lowered my truck to the stance I want. The problem is, I have no idea what the drop is being I did it with Photoshop.

Does any have an idea what drop this is

That looks like a 3/5 or 4/5 to me.

Re: Lowered Truck?

easy way to tell is to measure the distance from the top of the tires to the bottom of the wheel openings, then remeasure where you want it to be, the the difference is the drop.

Any drop gurus, please correct me if I am wrong about this

You can also check out Early Classic for pics of drop stances

looks kinda like the 3 1/2 - 6 drop

Re: Lowered Truck?

Looks to be close to 4/6 or even a little bit lower. I have 4/6 on mine, and yours is close to the profile of my truck...

Re: Lowered Truck?

Go 4/6 and you will still want to be lower.
