Wanting to go ahead and drop mine down a couple more inches like yours. Looks awesome. I just snapped a quick cell pic while in town. Mine is 2.5" drop springs up front and 4" springs in rear. Thinking 2" blocks in rear and 2" spindles up front.

Thanks for the kind words.
I like yours too. I think you should go for it.
The only other thing I did was, cut the rear bump stops

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Is anyone running this 4/6 inch drop springs from Western Chassis?

I am thinking about them.

Torsion bar drop up front with Chevelle coils in the rear. About to get drop shocks for the front and rear so I can bring the torsion bar back up. Those bolts drag on everything! 235 75 15 coker classic nostalgia content://media/external/file/9130

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Looks good, how are the Chevelle coils for handling weight in the bed? I've heard that jeep springs can't hold a load

Um, they're still pretty soft. I don't haul anything too big, but I haven't had any issues. I have about 3-4 inches before my frame hits the axle so I have a little room haha.
