Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
31" looks crazy tall!!! On a side note, what hinges are being used with your mock front end?

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
The 31 looks a bit high. I could be wrong but I dont think they need to be that high. I guess the bigger the better. Just means you can get bigger wheels on the front. Looks great keep up the great work.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
If I remember correctly, my 22's are just a hair over 30". They are 265/30's. I know I said they look crazy tall, but I think it's perfect. For someone looking to just purchase, not fabricate, a set of functional wells, I think bigger than necessary is better. Plus, you have 2 options going so you meet everyone's needs...Amazing!!!

Great looking project. Those inner fenders are sure to bring back your investment and then some.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
the green is just for kicks...one of my favorite colors though, these fenders are just "PLUGS" for molds now they wont ever be used.......that sucks !! so we just had fun with them !!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
looking good! and i like the idea of making the largest tubs you can, that way there's no rubbing with tire travel. need 'em on 4WD's too. it's all about the big rubber!
