How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66 - Page 34 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have gone as low as 5.5 inches in the rear without it bottoming out on the rear axle. 4 in drop coils and 1.5 in blocks. It did not bottom out until I did a 6 in drop.

Stock spindles, on 86 front xmember and coilovers on all 4 corners

Front- CPP drop spindles, one coil cut off the stock springs, bump stop bracket completely removed from the LCA, KYB Gas-A-Just shocks, stock 15x5.5" wheels, 1.5' bolt on wheel spacers, 215/75 tires. No rubbing over bumps or when turning full lock.

Rear- D2600 bags bolted directly to the trailing arms, top has short cups to make room for the air fitting. 1.5" drop blocks to keep the bags from being as compressed at ride height. Bump stop shortened but it only has about 1.5" of travel at this height so I need to do a 2" pipe notch. Shocks relocated via the Frizzle Fry method. 8" wheels, 235/75 tires.

Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's
Picked this up 2 weeks ago

Went to town on it

2.5 CPP Drop Spindles

3-5 Coils

15" Wheel Vintiques with 205/75 Cokers

Gonna add a 2" block and add a bolt on notch on the rear to get it a bit more level
