78 c20 Lowering Advice & (Picture Request)
Hey guys I picked up this 78 c20 a couple weeks ago now, I'm looking to lower the truck I just cant make my mind up on what setup to go with.
Right now I'm thinking maybe a 2/4 or 3/4 with a 245/75r16 but I'm considering possibly going lower. Side note - I'll be going with a kit from Switch Suspension, I really like the looks of there stuff. I'd love to see what you got with the details around it! I appreciate the help as always!!

Re: 78 c20 Lowering Advice & (Picture Request)
Here is my truck as it sits right now.
1978 c20 stock height on 9.50/R16.5 I'm in the process of ditching the 16.5's for 16s.. at this point I plan on running 16's with factory caps.

3/4 drop would be spindles up front and shackles/hangers out back. That should allow for decent clearance up front w/a 30.5" tall tire.
Saved & rotated your image for ya....

Saved the image to my computer.
Opened it in 'paint'. Rotated, cropped some background out slightly, & made it about the same size after cropping. Saved it to repost/upload.
