Help with stance and wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My current build is my first lowered rig. I've lifted most things instead. I found a pic I like and I'm hoping you all can tell me how much it's lowered, and what wheels are on it?

Thanks in advance.

My guess is a 4 -6 drop and I believe the wheels are ridler wheel 645

It's hard to tell different drops with different sized wheels, I was thinking 3/5, but it's hard to tell.

Mine is dropped 4/6, but I only have 28" tall tires, so that truck could be a 4/6, but the tire diameter is larger than mine...

Mine is only 3/4 but has 31" tires front and rear.

Nope, plenty of room. I did ditch the factory bump stops and went with the aftermarket ones (parts stores carry them, but I think summit has the best price). If you do keep the factory bump stops, they HAVE to be trimmed, they WILL bottom out (this is even in the ECE directions.)

The drop is 100% ECE. 2.5" spindles, 1.5" spring up front, 6" spring in rear with ECE shock and panhard bar relocation kits.

I used these and I think I trimmed off the very bottom beehive looking thing. I've had several hundred pounds in the bed and have yet to bottom out.

Thanks, I'd read your build and was curious if you'd had to go back and add cnotch. Glad to hear you havent.
