I'm going to drop my truck 3 1/2 ( 2 1/2 spindle and 1" coil ) front and 5" coil rear with Super Track bar and use 17 x 8 rims with 255/60R17 tires and am considering the Blasters for my truck. What are your drop specs and wheel and tire sizes?

Thanks, poor eye sight .... 50% blind, lost an eye in 2005. No biggy, built my 70' lwb In 9 mo's in 2006 and when I began I had such poor depth of vision I couldn't join 2 wires together. I still have a problem with some letters seeing them as numbers.

Don't reply with the blah, blah I'm so sorry for your loss or what ever crap I only share this cause you never know who's on the other key board.

Here's a couple pictures of my good friend's 1967 Chevy. It's lowered 3 1/2" in front and 5" in the rear.

powell72 · 02-25-2007, 02:24 PM

My '72 with a 4/6

TNChevyMan · 02-25-2007, 02:36 PM

Here is my '71 with a 3/4 drop. That's an estimate as I have 2.5" drop spindles, and wanted just a little bit more and took a torch to the springs for probably another 1/2". I have some brandnew 3" drop coils for the back that I have yet to put in because I got lazy and just heated them because I was tired of the funny car rake my truck had for almost six months.

Here's what it looked like before last Thursday when I leveled the back out and only had 2.5" drop spindles up front, no heated springs what-so-ever.

WHYBYNU · 02-25-2007, 04:06 PM

Here is my 71 with 3 1/2 front & 5.5 rear.

1LoC10 · 02-25-2007, 04:18 PM

mines should be a 4/5 drop with coils in front and coils and blocks in rear.. it was already dropped when I bought it

see ten · 02-25-2007, 05:10 PM

3.5" front and 6" out back.

2500HD · 02-25-2007, 09:41 PM
