How low can you go ??

Tires taller than 245/60R15 will need the inner fenders altered. I can make it over any speed bumps, but have snagged header collector flanges on occasion.

If you're willing to cut and weld, you could pancake the front crossmember about 1.5" and cut less off the spring - this would ride low but increase ground clearance.

My '61 Apache is 2" pancake, 2" spindles, and sits 5" off the ground. Yes, it's bagged, but when the novelty wears off, I'll go back to cut coils to maintain the ride height.

Right now I have 2 1/2 drop spindles, 2 inch drop springs., with CPP Tubular Control Arms.

Control arms have been on a few years, drop springs and drop spindles, have about 10 miles driven, since installed, prior to 2 years at paint shop

Truck will come home from painters next week

Tires are 245/45/18

I think that 1 more inch drop would look better.

I agree but you are being really mean by only showing us that much of your truck.

I would like to drop the rear a little too, any suggestions.

Right now I have a C notch, 4 inch drop springs, rear shock relocation bracket

with drop shocks, and 1 inch lowering blocks.

Any suggestions ??
