Tire & Wheel / Suspension set ups
Well Im finally back to working on the truck again...Got the K-member and the rear axel all welded up now... Im thinking of goin with a 17" Torque Thrust 2 or staying with a 15" wheel but need to know what springs I should go with to keep the ride good?? I put on the 2 1/2 drop spindles and had 3" drop springs but it almost sits on the ground with that set up... The rear i can do what ever since I have 5" springs and several drop blocks to choose from...
Pictures and set ups would be very helpfull as I dont know which I want to go with at this time... Oh and this is a 66 LWB 1/2 ton... Thanks Ron |

Re: Tire & Wheel / Suspension set ups
I talked to a guy with 2 1/2 drop spindles and a 2/4 drop he was running 17's with low-pro tires, looked real nice. I'll try and find a pic and post it when I get home tonight. He didn't mention any problems with the setup.
