Request 3/5 drop photos on a Stepside swb.
Does anyone have some photos of a 3/5 drop with springs only on a Stepside swb truck? Any issues with this such as alignment or ride? Please include your tire/wheel info too. Thanks for your help. I'm undecided on how low to go without spindles and notching the frame. If anyone has a 2/4 static drop send those photos too.

Re: Request 3/5 drop photos on a Stepside swb.
That's one sweet ride ya got there. That's the size tire I was planning on 15 X 8 rally wheels. I kinda like those wheels us got there. How much were they and where did ya get them from.

I got them from Summit Racing for $79 each. I had $50 in Summit Bucks and they had free shipping last Christmas. I had rallys on it before but wanted the cleaner look. The hub caps are oem 67 chevelle.

Thanks for that info. I like those wheels you put on. I think they look better than standard rally wheels too.

What is your backspacing on those new wheels. They look like a perfect to the fender edge fit.
