68 chevy C10
Ok so i bought a 68 C10 long bed for 2500 and I was thinking about lowering it 3" in the front and 4" in the back, but I was wondering if I had to make any cuts in order for it to work. A buddy of mine said the tires would rub if I dropped it that low. Just let me know what you think.

Re: 68 chevy C10
I have a 71 c10 shortbed that I lowered 4 1/2 in the front and 5 in the back and in the front. The front wheels look close to hitting but clear with the fenders with room and the back have room

Re: 68 chevy C10
That's a nice truck. The tires should not rub if they are 8" rims with 4.5 inch backspace, which is pretty common.
