4/7.5 drop. Put the stocker wheels, 235/75 whitewalls, and hubcaps on for the first time. I like the look.

Re: pics of lowered trucks with stock steel wheels and caps.

I am still debating if I want to lower my 67 c10 lwb. Maybe 3"/5" but keeping it all drum brakes. I wouldnt mind bags but that will cost me being I would have to pay someone.

fyi if you lower with 4 way drums you have to go with springs not bags.
You need drop spindles for front bags and them are disc only.

I have a pic someplace of my dog dish steelies someplace.

These style of hub caps were originally made in 69' and ran thru the mid 70's I believe, a little better looking than the stock 67-68 caps. (in my opinion of course.)

Re: pics of lowered trucks with stock steel wheels and caps.

I already love this thread!




Lowered a little thanks to the PO heating the springs.

15x6 steelies. 235/75 front and 255/70 rear.
