bigsmitty75 · 01-15-2012, 06:29 PM

Is there anyone out there can help me out with my dilemma. I have a '85 GMC SWB. 2WD that I'm currently restoring. I want to do a static drop on my truck. The wheels that I'm gonna run are a 24x9 with a 255/30/24 in the front and a 24x15 with a 405/25/24 in the rear. I don't want to bag my truck. Can some please help a brother out?

Slammed66 · 01-15-2012, 07:25 PM

What's the dilemma??

Bigsmitty75:
R u going to have room to run a 15" wide rear wheel and not narrow the frame? If u don't have to narrow the rear frame: Just do a flip rear kit (5-7" drop) and 3" spindles and 2" coils for the front.
If u do have to narrow the rear frame: it sounds like u r in over ur head, find a shop close to u and pay them to do it...

I am going to narrow my rear end in order to accommodate the 24x15 rim in the rear.

nicee, some specs on the drop please lol?

gringoloco · 01-24-2012, 09:23 AM

Pretty low static- what's the drop?

C10LIFE · 02-08-2012, 07:35 PM

Great thread, I called and ordered a 4.5 and 6 drop kit this morning and then put it on hold thinking I need a 5.5 and 7 to go with my 20x8.5 255/40r20 and 20x10 295/40r20. I have looked at a lot of trucks with the same size drops and wheels but the stance looks differant. Can anyone explain this or tell me if I am going to have a problem with the setup I am planning on putting togather? Thanks
