Dropped my 72 a little
I did some work to the truck this weekend and I thougt I would share. I already had 2" drop spindles that I put on last year with drop shocks in the front and rear. This past week I put on a 1" drop coils in the front, a deluxe trak bar kit, 5" drop coils and a shock relocator kit in the rear. It looks and rides really nice. Let me know what you guys think.

Here is the before picture



and here is the after picture

Sorry it took so long to get back with your answer, with summer here things are pretty busy. My tire size is a 235/75/15, it is just about 28" in diameter

Thanks for the compliment by the way
