Just curious who all out there has a 2.5"/ 4" drop on their C10's. Just ordered 2.5" drop spindles, 4" drop leaf spring, new stock heigh coil springs for my 72 C10 from Early Classics. Jeff was a lot of help over there. Cant wait to get it installed this weekend. Anyone have any pics of there rig with a similar set up?

Here is a similar thread. Post up some pics once you get it installed.
Post #24 is about the perfect stance IMO. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=321362

Wow looks amazing. Finally got my leaf springs on yesterday and new spindles and coil springs up front. I rebuilt all the suspension components while I was in there. Truck drives like new again.

Looking good, love the stance. I am planning the 2/4 drop with coils all the way around.

I have the 2.5 drop sndles with 1" drop springs in the front with coil suspension and 4" drop springs in the rear and sits a lot lower than those. Hmmm...

Used ECE 2" front 4" rear drop coils. Looks good and rides good.

I'd use ECE, but that just personal opinion. All their parts are made in USA and of great quality! Customer service is top notch as well!

Re: Anyone have a 2.5/4" drop on their 67-72 C10?
I used 4" drop springs out back with 255/70 and cut 3/4 coil out of the front spring with 245/60. This picture was after I repainted my 15x8 ralleys , before I put my center caps back on.
