Can someone ID how lowered my truck is?

[Burmanater]

So a couple months back I bought this truck off a friend of mine who had at one point previously posted some stuff about it on this forum. Anyways I'm curious as to just how much it is dropped?

It's got an axel flip in the back, some BULLETT(can't find anything on this company) drop spindles, and the front springs may or may not be cut. I'm not sure.

It has 225 70R15s on the the front with 265 60R15s on the back in the pic. I have other pics of it but not from any better angles than this or I'm not sure on the tire size because they're before I got it.

Main reason for this is it really could use some new shocks. The fronts are some super old Monroe short shocks that are blown out and the rears are stock and doing nothing because they're bottomed out. I've been looking at the belltech nitro drop 2 shocks but the lowest they list them for is a 4/6 drop. I think my truck may be lower than that in the front. I just want to get the right shock the first time. Open to suggestions on shocks also. Please provide part numbers if you can.

This is my daily driver/occasional hauler. I'm willing to go for a firm to stiff ride I need a little comfort retained. Thanks for any help or suggestions you can give.

might be 5 or 6 in the front and 5 in the rear

Looks 5/5in to me....still has the 2in rake.

Any recommendations on shocks?
Thanks for the help!

You can use 79 Toyota 2wd shocks for the back, they work great and are a cheaper alternative to expensive drop shocks.

Are you sure that has an axle flip? Mine sits like that and most flips sit lower, may just be hard to tell from the photo.

[Burmanater]

Very sure. I've been all over this thing since I took ownership. They even left the old perches on so I could return it to stock if I wanted. Pretty sure it's got cut coils in the front also.

As for the Toyota shocks what brand are you running? Also being as the Toyota was a light truck how do they do with weight on them? Maybe I'm asking too much but I want to spend my money right the first time. Trying to find something that offers a decent ride but also give better performance. I'm going to try and make it handle on the cheap.

Just FYI drop spindles don't affect the shock length. They only move the actual spindle higher on the knuckle. Lowering or cut springs will affect the shock length. Hydro shocks will be "softer" than nitro's. Gas charged shocks are nearly always stiffer. They were designed for vehicles that cycle the shocks a lot, to keep the oil from foaming and to help with heat. If you are only road riding hydro's will work fine for you, and ride better. My $.02.
