Re: Post your lowered/slammed 67-72's

Thanks guys..the front suspension has 2in drop spindles and airbags on a 1 1/2 in cup on the lower control arm. The rear i have stoppers to the axle only hits the bed and not more. If i go lower i will have to c-notch the chassis and cut the bed. I have the wood so i didnt want that. The wheels are 20 by 10s all the way around. the front has a 3 in and the rear has a 5 inch lip. clears perfect.
