Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

Picked this up 2 weeks ago

Went to town on it

2.5 CCP Drop Spindles

3-5 Coils

15" Wheel Vintiques with 205/75 Cokers

Gonna add a 2" block and add a bolt on notch on the rear to get it a bit more level

Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

Already Gone,
If that question was directed at me: Front was done with 2.5" drop spindles along with new stock height springs. Rear was done with progressive rate 4" springs only.

I used CCP went together extremely easily. Didn’t have to change tie rods as it’s made for the 68 tie rod ends . Only thing I had to do was get different brake hoses for the front . The ones that came with the kit were to short My 68 21/2 drop spindles 3 inch springs 4 inch springs

Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

For the guys running a 6+ drop in the rear... do you HAVE to notch the frame or can you get by with just trimming the bumpstops?

Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

I didn't do either one. I have rear coils though. Just drop coils, a different panhard bar and shock relocater brackets. Wait, check that, I think I did replace the bump stops with stops that came with the ECE kit (It's been a while since I installed). Mine is a 6" rear drop.

I wish ECE was still in business cause that’s the route I see most guys have taken when lowering these things
