I have 15" 8 lugs 2 ¾" backspace. You can buy them for about 60 bucks a piece and paint them whatever color.

PAINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! turned out amazing! what do you guys think?

[Harney Boy]

The paint looks damn good! Looks like you need a life jacket to be standing around it! Ill be painting my truck sebring silver next week. I do have a question, do you think if i did an axle flip on my truck would i be able to get enough drop out of the front by just cutting the coil springs to even it out?

you can, but you risk the fact that your coils will pop out of your control arms. I recomend buying drop spindles so you won't have any issues. Their not cheap though. I paid $400 for my set

Looks sweet man. Now you gotta get that beast on the road. If your doing 8 lug rallys, summit racing has 15x10 factory style rallys priced not to bad. Back spacing should let them tuck under the rear real nice. I have seen them on a few squares and i drool every time.

ohh, thats too bad. i guess im the only one again with a 3/4 single cab longbox dropped lol. that green 1 ton that was dropped, got sold and i never seen it back on here.

[notallthere]

I have been following this as well. Good job on the truck. I lowered my 3/4 ton 5 inches in the rear and 2 in the front. I still may go a little lower tho. Nice paint job with a great colour.

[Rockstargraphics]

Just followed this from top to bottom I will be lowering a 3/4 ton in the next month or so it's apart of my big build. Follow it here if you like http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=553109

got bill #2 out of the 3 bills for the body work and almost fell off my chair. this build will be stopped for a while...the estimate was way wayyy under what its costing me.

[budget78gmc]

Ouch hate it when that happens

[Harney Boy]

That means we're on the same boat! But i pulled 3 leafs out of 9 on each side of the rear and cut 1 lap out of the front left. Ill finish up the front right tomorrow and post some pics!
