Re: Dropmember in a 69 C10
Your truck is looking awesome. I can't wait until I'm at the point you are. Is your bag rubbing on your a-arm in the second pic? Do you have a cup underneath it?

Re: Dropmember in a 69 C10
6 lugs rock! Bags do not hit the steering stop on the control arm, the pic makes it look closer than it actually is. Id guess about a 1/2" gap when the truck is sitting on the bumpstops in the bags. Only a few more hours till i can run home and try these fittings out and get some lift pics. Thanks for the kind words, cant wait to tear it all down and paint and powdercoat everything.

Re: Dropmember in a 69 C10
And we have lift! There is no weight over the front but at 75psi I am getting about 8.5" of lift. No measuring tape in these but i think you will get the idea.

Re: Dropmember in a 69 C10
Excellent! You could park an 18-wheeler between the mount and the bag. Oh, and re ART's the we've never had a problem with that... any chance this came from the mouth of Jason?

Re: Dropmember in a 69 C10
What I understood is that they were going to go with a different upper shock mount and keep the same shock. I can find out for sure and ler you know... or maybe one of the guys from Air Ride will chime in.

Re: Dropmember in a 69 C10
Upper shock mount is on the frame... so would this be some kind of extension adapter thingie that bolts to the frame?

Re: Dropmember in a 69 C10
That's what I assume... but I don't know for sure. That's the way I will be building the upper shock mounts for the Dropmember kit.

I would think a basic "loop" that rides the top edge of the frame would do the trick.

Re: Dropmember in a 69 C10
It will look similar to those, except have another tab-like piece that would hang down and bolt where the original shock stud is in the frame... making it easier for locating before drilling two fresh holes in the chassis. (at least that's what it looks like in my head right now...) They will definitely need a mounting location on the side of the frame, due to the fact that the tabs will be taller than CPP,s.

Re: Dropmember in a 69 C10
we are going to be using the same shock so you don't loose any travel, but we are making a different bolt on upper mount to compensate for the upward movement . it should be available in a couple of weeks
