Re: 68 shortbed frame up rebuild (dropping it) - pics
dont worry i will go lower, that is just a frame with stock suspension without springs or shocks. I have tube upper-lower a arms on the way with 2 in drop spindles.
the speakers in the door are audiobahns, picked them up a few years ago. not bad on the sound quality straight from the receiver.

Re: 68 shortbed frame up rebuild (dropping it) - pics
Ill see what i can do, weathers been crap and I have everything out in the shed. most of it still in the bags it came with. I have been too eager in the past and open everything up and then when it comes time to install, im missing a few items.
the box im really waiting on is the suspension and bags. gotta get those on to see what/how much i need to cut from the frame to make it sit 'just right' how low do you think it will sit with tube a arms and 2 in drop spindle?

Re: 68 shortbed frame up rebuild (dropping it) - pics
yes they are 20s, with 17s you would be on the ground, or i guess on your front crossmember would be anyway !!
