Re: 69 C10 swb stepside project 45 ACP
The gap above the top of the rear tire is just over 8". Much to high for my liking. Once I get this thing assembled and complete I will see where the ride height ends up and make some adjustments.
Most likely it will end up with an axle over spring arrangement like a Camaro and I will be building a set of Cal-Trac bar like traction devices for it.
The front will come down quite a bit with an iron head big block vs the stock 6-cylinder that was in there stock. I believe the front end was all original parts still (before I tore it all apart) and the springs are the originals. I hope it doesn't drop too far. We will see where it ends up after assembly is compete.
