Re: Drop member V3- Scotts bolt in front-

I don't think the DM itself narrows it, you have to get the a arms in addition.

The DM will narrow the track width,... with stock arms also.

Re: Drop member V3- Scotts bolt in front-

As Lolife mentioned, and as it says in the information I provided, the Dropmember itself narrows the track width right at 1.5 inches per side. We also offer narrowed arms for those running big rubber or just looking for some extra room.

Re: Drop member V3- Scotts bolt in front-

So much good info here, I feel armed with knowledge! I used to be very skeptical of bolt on dropmembers, but...working for Dino and seeing so many of them in use and functioning properly I say they are definitely the way to lay frame. And after driving to cpp with Nate and getting a first hand taste of how truly respectful and knowledgeable he is, and how well he backs his product, I have no problem referring anyone that asks how to lay out a c10 to porterbuilt.
