Need to see slammed C10\'s for inspiration
My buddy just picked up a 66 C10 but he wants to see other trucks that have already been slammed. Please post your picture and tell me what you did to lower your vehicle, i.e. 2 1/2 inch spindles in front 4 inch springs in the back, etc.

It has drop spindles and a healthy kick on each end of the frame, coilovers on the rear.

Re: Need to see slammed C10\'s for inspiration
I drool over that truck.
I spent much of the day at Straykat 500, looking at it. Not the style I would build, but built the right way. Nice and low static drop, and no airsacks. He lets the workmanship say it all. Simple, tasteful and straight as an arrow. No sparks, no garish paint, and certainly no Flat Black and red wheels with WWW. I also like fchava's. Samething, Nice and clean w/ a perfect stance. Although Torque Thrust have been planned for mine for 15 years i am really liking those rallys w/67 centers.

Re: Need to see slammed C10\'s for inspiration
Don't know if I'd call mine "slammed", but it is lowered. No bags or sparks.

Re: Need to see slammed C10\'s for inspiration
- - - - - - The PO heated the front springs, and I added some springs I had laying around to the rear, so unless someone can give a stock measurment (from the fender to the center of the spindle/axle) I couldn't tell you the drop amount. The last pic was 'shopped' be someone here...mabey someday....

Re: Need to see slammed C10\'s for inspiration
Not exactly slammed, just lowered, but;
2 coils cut off the front springs, and 70ish Chevelle spring in the rear

Drop spindles and 1.5" drop spring with rear bags.
I like this look on our trucks. This is Clyde.
