The poor man's drop:

Torsion bars backed off in the front

TJ springs with pneumatic shocks in the rear.

bondo510 · 02-07-2012, 07:29 AM

Sweet ride Greg, the stance is perfect with the big and little tires. Just read through your build thread, nice work!

greg65 · 02-07-2012, 10:23 AM

Thanks, I was hoping it sat a little lower in front but it should make a good driver.

I think once you get the bumper on and get it all trimmed out and it settles a bit she'll be just right...

greg65 · 02-07-2012, 10:46 AM

I agree.

61_FL_Apache · 02-07-2012, 02:31 PM

Here is my 61.

Front tortion bars turned down a little. Bump stops removed and there is about an inch gap there.
Rear springs: cut coils. Not sure now much was cut off. PO did it. Its on bags in the rear now, but the pic is with the coils in.
Tires: 215/70/15

3" rear 2" front. All CPP shocks and coils.

stealth_weapons · 02-07-2012, 09:21 PM

Here's mine,
Front- CPP 3" drop srpings, POL 2.5" drop spindles, POL Tubular UCA/LCA 3"
Rear- CPP 4" drop springs
all this equates into hella rake!

Ground Clearance.... i has none;

1enick72 · 02-10-2012, 12:06 AM

62 short step, you listed sway bar brackets for lowered trucks. I have 2" springs and 2.5" drop spindles and a sway bar that I have not installed yet. Will I need special brackets for the sway bar?

What size tires are you running?

willyp · 02-13-2012, 01:35 AM

early classic enterprises 4/6 drop. power steering kit, power disk brakes, front sway bar, 235/70/16 front 255/70/16 rear.

losthope · 02-13-2012, 02:33 AM

Here's the only two pictures of the new static drop i did,have no clue how much drop? its all stock with cut springs front and back, waiting for my basic bolt in c-notch to arrive and the back will be lowered a little more, the rear camero sway bar bolts to the top of axle so its losing a couple inchs of potential drop with that setup.....
