Static drop on a 65 Step side
I put stock height replacement springs on my build already but have decided that I want to do a static drop; just like the look better. I have put on 2.5 inch drop spindles with the front disc brake conversion.
I am thinking I would like to drop the front 3 more inches and then drop the back 5 inches. I would appreciate any feedback on this. I also am wondering if I need to relocate the shocks with this kind of a drop. I have put on new shocks already so hoping to not have to relocate. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Static drop on a 65 Step side
With a 3" shorter front spring you will need drop shocks.
With a 5" shorter rear spring, you will need drop shocks, shock relocators, and an adjustable trac bar to re-center the rear axle in the frame.

Re: Static drop on a 65 Step side
Thanks for the response! Will start looking for a kit that has the relocations, shocks and tracks bar.
