I possibly lowered it TOO MUCH!
Hey guys, PICS UP!!!!!! Thanks to 1LOC10, he is a great guy.
I just got done installing my 2 1/2 inch drop spindles and the 3" springs. I lowered the rear by flipping the axle. I set it on the ground today and WOW. I measured the middle of the bumber from the floor to the bottom of the bumper is only 8". Looks bad but I think I am gonna run into tire rub isues on the front. I run factory five lug truck rally wheels and a 235-75-15 tire. The tires turn in the wheel well but I can only feel about an inch between the outside of the tire and the inner fender. I have not driven it yet because i shortened the frame and dont have a drivelline yet. The wheels have a 4" backspacing. I dont think i specified when i ordered the drop springs that it was a big block truck!! I know that there are several on here with the same drop set up and say they dont have a rubbing problem. Am I OK or do I need a tire change or different front springs?? Thanks Forgot to mention, Im gonna have to drop the rear probably another 2" with spring hanger to sit right.
