Lemme see how much yall know about C10's...

bagged78 · 01-22-2004, 10:31 PM

15's for the wheels, and either a 3-5 or 2-4 for the drop..

78chevstepside · 01-22-2004, 10:39 PM

2/4 drop with 15 inch wheels 295/60r15 tires thats my guess

Ding ding ding! Buw what about TIRE size? He said he just heated the front coils, and put a drop shackle and removed a leafspring...gay way to lower it, but the stance looks nice!

Slonaker · 01-23-2004, 12:34 AM

I saw one here in San Antonio where they just bent a kink into the leaf springs right before the rear shackle. It lowered it, and the truck looked good, but I would hate to actually have to drive it.

4/6" drop?! Looks to be a 3/4" or less.

Nope, it's just the camera angle. He's running 275/60 15 (same as OCBaud) and his fenders were RIGHT at the tops of the tire (which is the same as OCBaud). My camera was at a LOW angle, so it looks higher than it actually was.

my back tires tuck almost an inch. the front ones have sagged a lot more since i first lowered it and everything

No matter what the drop, he needs to watch out for shopping carts!

*1FaastC10* · 01-23-2004, 06:08 PM

i'd say his drop is nowhere near what he thinks it is. here's a pic of mine with 235 75 15s on it that measured just under 28.25" and a 2.5/4 drop.

**swervin ervin** · 01-23-2004, 07:27 PM

I think he's guessing what he's got. No way for him to know for sure what it is, unless he measured it before and after. I say it's more like a 2/4 drop myself, if that much.

No way a shackle and removing a leaf will lower it 4" anyway.

1faastc10, your truck looks like mine will after some paint.

I could look at that avatar for hours upon hours...:p

8t5 silverado, if your truck looks like mine, you've got some serious reassembling to do.
