Looking for someone with a 4 inch front drop - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Any one in my area have a 4 inch front drop (spindle and spring) with five lug wheels they would let me bolt up one of my wheel/tire to see how it fits?

Probably should be a 71 or 72 ... thanks!

Well I know my tires and wheels will fit because I saw several pics of trucks and talked via the board with the owners. I would like to see how close it is in person, because I may want to go a little lower. If its too close I need to a little bit smaller tire which I prefer not to do because I wanted the same size on all four corners.

Im also putting together a truck bed trailer. Before I buy new tires for it I want to check my fronts. If I have to go smaller I will just put my fronts on my box trailer.

Size is 275 60 15 on an 8 inch wheel with 4.25 back space.

There ya go, I think thats it in a nutshell =)
