Who has the lowest truck w/o bags?

[Aarons72]

I've got new rims and tires on order and I'm wanting to drop her down a little bit more but I'm not sure how low i can go...When I measure from my license plate to the ground I'm sitting at 6 1/2 inches...I'd love to see how low we can get these trucks w/o bags...let's see some pics of some crazy low 67-72's. I have a feeling I have a long way to go...

The following two trucks are the lowest that I've personally seen, and they each look killer in their own respect.

Well here's tcb-1's truck with information:

front:
-Summit 3" drop coils for 73-89 GM trucks with a half coil removed
-McGaughy's 2.5 drop disc brake spindles
-1.25" front sway bar
-Tokico drop shocks (still to install)
-CPP shortened sway bar mounts
-Prothane bushings

rear:
-2.25" custom billet aluminum drop blocks
-CPP 6" drop springs
-CPP bolt-in "C" notch
-Early Classic SuperTrac bar
-shock relocators (still to install)
-Tokico drop shocks (still to install)

rolling stock:
-235/70/15 Uniroyal Tiger Paw GTS
-rallyamerica.com 15x7 bare smoothie rims
-rear 1" wheel spacers

The front tires tuck inside the wheel well enough that there is no tire rub. The front aligns up correct.

I have not had to modify the bed to clear the rear axle.

I did need to modify the exhaust to dump ahead of the rear axle.

And here is lolife99's '69 and write up:

The suspension is a 5.5"/7.5" static drop.
I'm using some swap meet '71-'72 McGaughy's drop spindles ($100), a set of $89 Summit 3" drop springs, and my old Belltech drop shocks from the blazer. In the rear I have a set of 6" ECE drop springs, ECE Super Track Bar, and ECE shocks and relocators from my '71 parts truck. I also made a set of 1.5" lowering blocks to get the rear down.

Wheels are a set of 7" and 8" 6-lug ralleys I had, with some Ebay centercaps. Tires are 215/70-15's and 275/60-15's for a little rubber rake.

The front a-arms are the old stock lowers and CPP uppers off of the blazer. All the tie rods, idler arm, etc. are new.

Thanks Nate! That is some great info...

My frame is C notched with lowering springs and the front is 2.5 drop spindles with 3 inch lowering coils. Peace

My junk is running 3 inch drop springs with 1/2 coil cut, 2.5 spindles for 7 inch total. Rear is 6 inch drop.

It isn't the lowest by any means, but I have driven it 98,168 miles this way on all types of roads, rain or shine.

Dude, I like it

[project 67 sub]

cant currently post up to date pics right now(no camera)but the rear of my burb has a 9" static drop: 6" springs 3" blocks. and the front is just cut springs right now(about a 4" drop) but plan on adding 3" drop spindles to that untill i can afford to bag it.
(old pic). here is about where the front will sit when done untill bags.

(here is the most up to date pic i have). this is were the front and the back sits right now, the front is up 3" to high, and the back is tucking a 255/35zr 20 right at the top of the rim
