Crew Cab static drop.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Has anyone seen or personally dropped a Crew Cab on a static setup? I have an 84' Crew Cab (not a duallie), and I want to get her low, but I can't afford the air ride...yet? All help is appreciated.

to do it cheap and not double spend any money, you can get you a set of spindles for the front end because you will want them anyway then you can dearch your springs. That way when you get airride you arent throwing any money out the window

I agree spindles are a great investment for up front and will continue with your air system but on the rear I would say go ahead and spend the dough for a flip-kit. you'll have a better ride and unless you pull leaves you'll retain load capacity. It can be sold once you're ready to go air in the rear and really isn't a big expense.
