Re: Cheap Drop HELP!

That's what I was afraid of! Yeah looks ok, but I'm not sure it's my style (no offense). I think I like the more raked look. I still want it lowered some though. But you gotta consider too I want this to be a show truck, and a driver when I want it to be. So don't want it so low I can't take it down a gravel road without bottoming out.

I think I'm gonna grab the stock springs off of my parts truck and use them with 2 1/2" drop spindles (disc brake upgrade too) and 2" drop blocks in rear or go with 2 or 3" drop rear springs. Plus the Chevelle springs are just too soft for my liking. But they gave me an idea of what it'd look like like that.

Re: Cheap Drop HELP!

No worries about the offense here...I do plan to roll around cali style in the blazer once in a blue moon, but only because it's bagged...defintely not a look I like for a static drop.

I have a set of 6" rear drop springs, and even a 1.5" front (coupled with a 2.5 spindle is a 4/6 drop) that I pulled off my blazer if you're interested. I didn't buy them, but the rest of the suspension was from CPP so I'm pretty sure that's what they are. PM me if so!
