Speedway Bolt In IFS, Anyone use it?

[DENALI]

Contemplating using it in a 54. Looking to see if anyone has done it and how they liked it as well as how low you can make it sit for a static drop. THanks

From their website this note somewhat tells you what height he truck will sit at with stock spindles and dropped spindles.
From Speedway"
This bolt in unit is ONLY made to fit a 47-54 Chevy 1/2 ton and 3/4 Pickup chassis. Inside dimension at axle centerline is 23-1/2", outside is 28". This frame is slightly tapered to the front. Standard MII spindles will set pin at 1/2" below frame rail and 2" drop will set it at 1-1/2" above.

Figure out what half of the diameter of the tire of choice is. and then measure from frame rail to the shop floor and you can get a ball park idea of where it would set if your imagination is good enough. For instance on a 26-1/2 inch tall tire the frame rail would be 13-1/4+ 1/2 = 13-3/4 inches off the shop floor at the axle.
