I haven't made the rear yet and am probably going to go with the ones that 67cheby is getting ready to sell for the front.

Re: How about some pics of lowered 2wd

Looking at all these nice looking burbs inspires me each time to push on trying to finish mine. Here is my 71 C20. Not as low as I'd like it too be but maybe down the road.

Re: How about some pics of lowered 2wd

I've put up these pics on a different posting but here's my '68. It also has 68 Chevelle center caps and rally wheel trim rings since these pics were taken.
I'm not sure what the drop is but I'm trying to figure it out (mostly so I can change it!) I think the PO may've just torched the springs or something, it's pretty bouncy and I find the bumpstops regularly. Plans now are power steering and an OD trans.

Re: How about some pics of lowered 2wd

I thought I had better throw up a recent picture of the burb in here as well. I have a picture of it before paint on page one.

Re: How about some pics of lowered 2wd





Front and rear coils torched by the PO along with 2" blocks in the rear. 255/65R15 tires. I plan on going with a 4/6 drop eventually to get the ride back.

Re: How about some pics of lowered 2wd



Here is a pic of mine. It has a mild drop... Lol
The front and rear wheels have been adjusted now to be centered in the wheel wells. These pics are about a year old.
