Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
I just measured on a level surface the exact height of the truck from the floor to the out lip of the fender and bedside.
this post is basically for me to document before and after as I am hoping that I am happy with the stance because if not Bags will be next... front 27 1/2 and rear 30

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
I looked under there last night and it looked like it will clear and not rub then again I wont know 100% till I bring the truck to the shop and check while in the air. What is the measurement on your truck from the floor to the edge of the wheel opening in the rear? as it sits today.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
We will get that truck on air before he realizes it. The truck is in my garage now so he may not have a choice after all.
We have gauges ready to go in..... |
