Post I need lowered long bed Pics

I would like to see any pics you have of lowered LWB trucks. Also, I would like to know how much they are dropped, and what size tires. Thanks

If I can ever get these pictures online, you'll see my 1 Ton Longhorn lowered.

Thanks. If anyone else has any pics I would still like to see them. The one other thing I would like to see is a coil spring truck dropped 2.5 front/4 rear. Would that be level? Or would it still be higher in the back. I am thinking about doing either 2.5/3, or 2.5/4

Talking

I just dropped my 70cst LWB 2 1/2 front and 4" rear. I have 275x60x15 on all four corners. Truck sits fairly level but it has only been a couple days since these were installed. It may still settle a little more.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Don't know if this one would be lowered if it had littler rims on it, but I love putting this pic up of this truck with 22's. hehehe. But do you'll think this is a longhorn? I can't really tell, and I was just wondering.

Don't get mad at me for using someone's pictures or something, but here's one. I only save nice trucks with big rims, sorry guys with 15's, but sometimes I make exceptions.

Here is my 72 it has 5inch springs in the rear.The fronts I am not sure of as they were just heated around 1983 or 84.I'm guessing 3/4 inches in the front.
