Re: Dropmembered trucks

Thanks for the response nate. So all geometry is identical between all versions, Its just asthetic improvements between versions? From the cell phone pics i saw, it looked to be a 3.2 with tube setup. Are there any differences in your arms(versions) or any designators to tell me what version they are?


thanks again

There had been a couple minor tweaks to geometry over the years... not due to any concerns or issues... but mainly my inability to leave anything alone!

The only variations on the arms that could exist would be length. We have a standard length option (same as factory) and a one-inch narrowed length option that would be compatible with the Dropmember.

Re: Dropmembered trucks

So it would be safe to assume that if these arms are mated with your DM that they are the narrowed arms? I hope so because thats what i want. I think I need to see this thing and give you a call. I really appreciate all your help with my questions.

Either one could be bolted to the Dropmember. The Dropmember already narrows the track width, the arms just narrow it more. The one in my avatar is the 3.2.

The DM narrows the track nearly an inch and a half per side all by itself.

Just shoot me a text later when you go check it out.

Nice pic, although I am a die hard Chevy man. Both those trucks are killer. I don't think I could pick a fave!

I'm a Chevy/GMC guy too. I've got like 9 C-10's, 3 K-20's, K-30 & C-30,
C-60 dump, and a couple S-10's around the place. I do like the 60 vintage Ford's though. I would have to pick the C-10 in the picture above.
