Best 60-66 pickup static drop options
A buddy of mine just picked up a 66 chevy c-10 swb 2wd single cab fleetside pickup. It has a fairly decent base but were looking to lower it substantially, say 3-5 drop with just a static drop would be his goal. Here are its specifics
Truck/trailing arm rear suspension A-arm front end Power steering Power brakes (looking for a big brake conversion not high end though) V-8 700r4 combo 5 or 6 lug possibly (depending on wheel options) 18-20" staggered wheels (no width yet) DO NOT want to cut up the bed Simply looking for the best drop kits, spindles, springs, shocks the works. She's a blank slate so were just trying to map it out right now.

Under the sheetmetal, his old 69 & 'new' 66 are basically the same deal as far as suspensions are concerned.

Re: Best 60-66 pickup static drop options
Pretty much I'm happy about that. These trucks really are a walk in the park just looking for personal experience with drop spindles and big disc brake setups
