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

I get my crown suspension 5 inch rear drop kit today so ill be throwing that on this weekend (if wether permits), it rained last night so who knows. im currently running shackles in the rear with a few leafs out. The 5 inch drop will probably drop the rear below level which i will then fab up or adjust the current rear shackle so it sits level. but i will also have a c-notch which im most excited about. mo more bottoming out on dirt roads when im hauling multiple bikes in the back.

I am running a turbo and have one 4 inch down pipe and we ran it out the side of the bed. Keeps everything simple and clean under the truck.

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

You can see the plate following the frames factory curves here. This is basically doubling up the frame thickness at the notch as well as boxing it in. It may add a little weight but i like the assurance of the strength.

PS. Me and my buddy who owns this shop are mechanical engineers and have the ability to reproduce this notch. Once we build my 4 link we may be able to offer a notch and 4 link kit with pan hard for cheap, compared to the popular brands.
