Those are different, never saw those with all the searches I did. I almost did custom rims, until I saw the price tag.

2" drop spindles and 3" drop springs on the front, leaf spring flip kit 5.5" on the rear. Front tires are 255/35r20 and tears are 275/45r20. Wish the pics weren't upside down.

Trackman101, what set up do you have front and back. I like the stance. Previous owner cut the springs on the front of my 72. I'd like to change to a drop spindles and lowering spring combo to get more travel out of mine. I also need to get the rear down some. The stance on your truck is what I'm looking to achieve. Thanks

Notched the frame and put coil overs on. I can lower it almost another inch before I start to rub from time to time daily driving it.

Trackman..(or others) I am wanting to run the same wheel/tire combo and will also custom tub with wood bed. I am having a hard time finding 20X12 wheels with 7.5 backspace. Most "normal" wheel manufacturers (coy, ridler, etc) online do not go to 20X12 with that backspacing? Did you have to custom order wheels?

Yeah, to get the exact backspacing you want you are going to have to order custom 2 or 3 piece wheels. Which means $$$. Coys makes a 20x12 but you are limited to the backspacing they make the wheels in.

Thanks bennett68c10 that is what I'm discovering. I did not really budget for 4K in wheels and tires 😳
