Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Front: 2.5" drop spindles and 1" drop spring
Rear: 3" drop spring. Had a 2" drop block in there at first but it was too low.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Your setup is similar to mine, I’m going to be running 3” rear drop springs and 2.5” drop spindles with stock springs.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Just put the new wheels on today (posted under Tire/Wheel pics as well). 1963 C10, dropped 6" in the rear with ECE springs, lowering shocks, and relocation kit. Stock rear bump stops were cut about 3/4".

Front is dropped 4.25" by using 2" drop ECE springs and cutting one coil off. I replaced the bump stops in front with Energy suspension parts. I used longer bump stops up top (Energy suspension part 9.9143R) so when the car is jacked up the springs do not come loose. The lower bump stops (Energy Suspension 9.9101R) are cut to give adequate clearance. This allowed me to leave the drum brakes in place.

Tires are 275/55-17 on 17" x 9" wheels.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66
