Re: How about some pics of lowered long beds
Wow, CST10, I have been contemplating painting my 70 a different color than white, but I think you changed my mind! Your truck looks awesome!

Re: How about some pics of lowered long beds

Re: How about some pics of lowered long beds
Still need to lower it 3+ inches in the rear to get the stance better.

Re: How about some pics of lowered long beds
Love the all white especially with the CST chrome accents. So with a 2/4 drop did you just replace the front and rear springs? Did you use shock relocators and/or adjustable pan hard bar? What size tires you running? Been thinking about lowering my long bd C10 for years and have decided I don't want to go down much. Trying to decide if I should go with a stock front spring and a 2 1/2 drop spindle and 4 inch rear spring drop or drop 2 1/2 spindle with one inch drop spring for a 3 1/2 and a 5 inch rear spring drop.
