Re: The Ant Farm - 67 C10 Suburban project

I have already put power steering and a one-ton hydra-boost system on.

I have picked up a 5-lug disc brake setup that will be going on plus a 5-lug rear end to match. Also scored a set of four 15x8 truck rally wheels and two 15x7 van rally wheels for it. Fronts will be 7's with 235/70-15 T/A Radials and the rear 15x8 with matching 275/60-15 T/A's. Extra 8's will get a set of snow tires I have in case I have to use this thing in bad weather.

Not sure how low it will get yet but I started with a full coil off a spare set of front spring I have to see how I like it.

The rear will get a set of spare sport springs I have left over from another project. The stock springs look to be collapsed as the center three coils are touching each other.

It will not be getting a frame notch or air bags. Just a static drop to adjust the attitude a little.
