Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
You can't cut the Jeep springs because of the tapered ends?

The bumper is a stock 60-66 bumper. It actually has changed in the fact that I added Chrome Bumper Guards. I know that doesn't sound good but the factory bumper guards look the old Caddy bumper guards. I'll post an updated pic. |

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
Here is the updated pics of the Bumper Guards added to the stock bumper. I can't tell you how tough these were to get wrap around these bumpers. Save yourself time and loosen all Bumper Bolts. Each has two mounting points and you will have to tighten each slightly at a time until top and bottom come tight to the bumper. If you want this look. Little old school look and it's starting to grow on me!

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!
4.5" front / 5" rear. I used 2" springs and 2.5" drop spindles in front and 4" springs along with 1" blocks in rear. Wheels are 18"x8"s and 20"x10"s.
Sorry for the poor picture quality, I took it with my phone on a day it was trying to rain. We had just thrashed on the truck 17 straight hours to finish it after starting it five years ago. |
