Re: Dropmembered trucks

I'm not for shure but I think Porterbuilt offers a bolt on body drop for 67-72 c10's. Think they are shortened body mounts.So add that plus front and rear dropmembers And u are in the weeds!

Re: Dropmembered trucks

Not the best pic but the pinch weld is on the ground. A 1" SFBD would bury the rockers.

Re: Dropmembered trucks

Also make sure your fuel cell isn't hanging too low before you just air it out.
The Dropmember will really lay those rear frame rails!

Looks good! I think your rear rotors are on the wrong side though....

Re: Dropmembered trucks

I think rotor direction is a choice.
Mine are mounted like Hart Rods,...
Baer Brakes mounts them like Ray did.

My bad. I thought the point of the slots were to use centrifugal force to expel the gasses created by the pads.
