Re: some low c10s

Stance is important with any car.....Having a nice stance looks soooo much better than simply just "laying rocker" or being low.......
It's too bad alot guys don't "get it".......

Re: some low c10s

that's not layed out is it? Is that your ride height?

The front springs have settled since that picture and the fender sits right about at rim height.

That's a beautiful K5.....love the interior also.

Thumbs up Re: some low c10s

Nice stance, slight rake........Absolute perfection........

I'm seriously considering building a Blazer, a little more family freindly than my truck....this Blazer will be my inspiration.

Re: some low c10s

Some real nice trucks. Lotta work there. I have never gotten into the whole big wheel laying pinch thing but they sure can look good. Thanks for posting the pics. I gotta see if my dad likes any of those (he really dislikes larger then 17 inch wheel)

Crush,IMO I'd stick with the TT's on the blazer. Can't go wrong with that look maybe lower it a tad? or is it on bags?

That is all the way down, it rides about 3" from that. I am running stock inners so can not go any lower with them in..

Thanks you all so much, It's been a long road to get it here. look for it in Street truck mag and Truck Builder mag this summer..

Re: some low c10s

Hey Rust, what're the specs on that step? Is he bagged, and if so - how? Does he have Air Ride stuff, or something else? How is the back bagged?

Also, what size wheels and tires are those?

More pics would be great!

Sorry for all the questions. As you can see over there to the left of this post, I'm pretty interested in bagged steps.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
