Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

Here is our 64 BBW Wide side. Static drop. Two full coils cut up front and in the rear I have 2"blocks with 4" dropped springs. We decided to go air and just ordered all the stuff to ride on air. I'm installing 3"dropped pockets to the LCA and removing the factory bump stops. Keeping the drum brakes at all four corners. Just going with a standard C notch in the rear. Will be running the factory steel wheels with a small whitewall. Thinking about a satin green. (Green Tiki on you tube).

Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

Has anyone used lowering leaf springs for the rear? If so do you have pictures so i can see what it looks like? I have also thought about changing it over to rear coil springs so i can buy a complete suspension kit.

Just take two or three leafs out of the leaf pack and you'll be good to go.

Here is a pic of my truck with rear lowered leaf springs and an axle flip. If I remember correctly the springs are 3" lower than original.
