I'm not for shure but I think Porterbuilt offers a bolt on body drop for 67-72 c10's. Think they are shortened body mounts.So add that plus front and rear dropmembers And u are in the weeds!

Not the best pic but the pinch weld is on the ground. A 1" SFBD would bury the rockers.

Thanks guys, i hope to cut the bed floor this weekend and get it back on the truck so i can see what wheels size will work best.

Thanks Ray

Also make sure your fuel cell isn't hanging too low before you just air it out.
The Dropmember will really lay those rear frame rails!

Looks good! I think your rear rotors are on the wrong side though....

Mine are CPP and they are mounted the same way ??? are they wrong ??

lolife99 11-02-2010 12:24 PM

Re: Dropmembered trucks
 
I think rotor direction is a choice.
Mine are mounted like Hart Rods,...
Baer Brakes mounts them like Ray did.

My bad. I thought the point of the slots were to use centrifugal force to expel the gasses created by the pads.

Re: Dropmembered trucks
 
Are you guys happy with the rear brake set up from cpp?
