Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
Nacho - I like that stance. What are the specs on the wheels and tires?

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
So my truck has some rake with the PO having lowered the front about 4". Today I got to see what it would look like with the rear done about 6". Maybe this is how they did mock-ups before photoshop? 2000lbs of cobblestones = 6" drop

I like it. But perhaps take out a few more stones. Otherwise, drive it as is.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
I really like the stance of your truck, lowered just enough but not too low and that tire size combo is perfect. I looked through your build thread (you do awesome work btw ) but I didn't see if you used drop spindles or coils?

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
Is that 7 up front or 6.5 up front? Either way how do you drive down the rode without dragging your lower control arms on everything?

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
Yes, it has a bolt in C notch, it rides pretty good.
This shell belongs to a friend of mine and it matches it pretty good, but last week I picked up a nice "Gem Top" shell.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
Here is mine - just put new rear shocks in (belltechs) and rear shock relocators since the ride was bumpy. Still a little rough so might need to do blocks and proper springs. Will take pictures to help clarify it looks like t=just cut springs causing this.
