Sticky Idea: Drop Specs with Pics - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

8t5Silverado · 02-25-2004, 03:53 PM

I was thinking how beneficial it would be to have a sticky with pics showing your truck before and after a drop, with the specs, to give the rest of us an idea of what ours will look like with that particular set up.

Example:

Here is a pic before with fenders sitting at 30" high in front and 32" in rear.

Here is a pic after with 2.5 Western Chassis spindles and 1.5 springs, with a 6 flip in the rear.

Any opinions?

If you think this would be nice to have please say so.

If not, then please say so as well.

I personally think there is getting to be too many stickys here.

I like the idea, but I don't want to have to start scrolling down a whole page before I can see the "regular" threads.

Just my thoughts.

Agreed....Its a good idea but yes there are getting to be to many sickies. I am trying to get hte stickers thing rollin so it can come off. But I have been pretty busy lately. So, if u wanna post pics of before and after shots. Do it in Timspeeds tpoic.

I think thats a great idea. I have looked on this board many times for lowered specs w/pics & most of the time ive seen people posting specs or pics but not that many together. Im in the process of my lowering mine yet but would be glad to post mine (plan on taking a bunch of pics of mine when I get it back on the ground anyway). I say go for it! I can see their point about the stickies though too...corn

8t5Silverado · 02-27-2004, 11:36 AM

okay. I will post mine in Tim's sticky.

LOHRTBT · 02-27-2004, 05:02 PM

Thre just needs to be a FAQ that has that type of stuff in it...rather than crapping up the board with sticky's

bigblock73 · 02-27-2004, 05:19 PM

If someone can put together a good quality article with pics, I can link it to my site. That way it saves space and is one less sticky to have to scroll past.

Just an idea.

8t5Silverado · 02-27-2004, 05:24 PM

that's a good idea, bb.

I can supply some pics.
