is that only 2 1/2" front spindles no springs? did you have to c notch the rear? or just remove the bump stop? i really want to drop my truck but i want to do it right. and i love your stance.

Here a few pics of my 83 C20 Silverado 454 V8. One owner truck. All original. Haven't done anything to it yet as I just bought it. Love the truck but am not crazy about those mirrors (handy for towing though) and running boards

Here is my 1984 CUCV. Swapped out the 6.2 for a 454 and built some bumpers.

Jvsapp - the front has 2 1/2 Ground force drop spindles from Summit Racing and new stock height springs with one cut coil. the rear i just removed the factory bumpstops and used the red round ones in my djm 5" kit also from Summit. the rear rides like a cadillac...but the tops of the front tires rub the top of my inner fender if i hit a decent bump cruisin down the road. i have 255/50-15's on it all around...needs like a 255/35-15 up front to drop the front down just a hair. :D

up next is new thicker front and rear sway bars...motor and transmission and rear-end after... :metal:

the first picture is the rear pass. side...havent bottomed out yet driving on the houston roads...the second is is pic that its true, you can have a 2 1/2" drop spindle with a 15" wheel without any control arm clearance issues, which i was quite worried about when i bought them...
