Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!

Front, 2" drop springs and 2.5" drop spindles. The rear is 6" drop springs. In the future I plan to drop the front another inch and the rear 2 more inches.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!

heres mine with the air bags dumped on the rear(sitting on the bump stops) and torsion bars turned down 5'',drove it around the paved alley's and never rubbed also seemed to handle ok but again it was just in the alley's so no real speed was achieved....also i believe those tires and rims that are shown measured 29'' tall

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!

Does someone make a stock drop spindle for our trucks? I see several trucks on here that say they have 2.5" drop spindles and still have 6 lug wheels.

The hubcaps on my truck are the "Hollywood Flipper" caps. you can get 'em from Moon.

Hey badbowtie, what has been done to your truck to get so low static?

Use some Comet or Ajax and a scrub brush...the whites will brighten up.

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!

Screw scrubbing your whitewalls!!! That's too much work! Just get some Westley's Bleche white. Spray it on, let it sit for about 30 seconds and rinse. Nothing gets whites whiter.
