That's a good looking truck. Look like about a 5/7 drop. I believe I saw one just like it in a Truckn mag article. I'll see if I have it at home tonight.

Don't worry I didn't know that either for a long time. Here's a site to inform you on the differences of the 73-87's. Lots of good info here.

yeah....'77 has the gold painted trim...instead of black. I owned a '77 GMC Royal Sierra Heavy Half (same as Big 10)...wish I still had it.
