Weekend Install Complete!!!
Hey guys/gals, just wanted to share my weekend install over the last two weekends. Me and a couple buddies got my ECE 4/6 drop kit with 1" lowering blocks and tubular control arms installed. Needles to say i'm pretty happy with the final outcome. No rubbing on the front tires 255/55/17, but I do need to reroute my exhaust in the rear to give more clearance from hitting the diff.
I bought a porterbuilt c-notch but decided not to remove the bed to install so I will be selling the notch and purchasing a CPP notch in replacement. Enjoy the pics. Rick Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Weekend Install Complete!!!
The new stance looks great! I have been doing a lot of research on C10 alignments. Here is a thread I did on my latest findings. I hope it helps you when you get your alignment done!

Turned out great. Looks like it matched the back real well.

Re: Weekend Install Complete!!!
Wheel and tire specs?
is it a 4/6 drop + 1" blocks in the rear = 4/7 drop, or is it a 4/5 drop + 1" blocks in the rear = 4/6 drop. Thanx Dano

Re: Weekend Install Complete!!!
Looks great! The Porterbuilt notches are the best built (I am running one), but they do require a lot of drilling. Taking the bed off is easy with a few buddies, but I sure would hate to see that slick paint get scratched. I have seen lots of the CPP notche work well, too. Good luck, and your truck is SHARP!

Re: Weekend Install Complete!!!
How does it drive as compared to the original height? Did you put a front sway bar on it too?

Re: Weekend Install Complete!!!
That looks great.
Any chance we could get a measurement(front and rear) from the center of wheel to the fender arch? |
