Re: My 73 c10 project.....

i finally got a chance to measure how high the rear of the truck is while laid out and i measure from the rear part of the rear leaf spring hanger and it sits about 4 inches of the ground...... so if you stand from the rear of your truck and measure the lowest part of the leaf spring hanger is reading 4 inches, your truck seem to sit pretty low tho based on the pics you have posted before..... anyway i hope this helps....
