[BugzC10]

Since I moved, how about an updated picture....4.5 / 6 drop

[Graham57a]

6/8 ish

[PepperTreeGarage]

Our C20

[stomper]

Cut coils, drop spindles, notch, 2" drop blocks, rear air bags mounted directly to frame.

[stomper]

Doing that to this one next. Currently coils cut way too far and 6" drop springs in back.

What are you guys using for a 4/6 drop on your coil spring trucks these days? I'm asking because the ECE 4/6 drop was so popular and is no longer available?

[Boog]

2 1/2” spindles with 1 round cut off stock front springs for 4 1/2” total front. 4” rear springs. 255/70/15 tires and 15x8” rallys all around.

This is how mine sits on 15's. I have a 6 inch drop spring in the rear with a 3 inch up front and a 2.5 inch drop spindle. I sit at around 28.5 in the front and 29 in the rear from the ground to the highest section of the arch of the wheel well.

Not much a picture but it's all I got. 4" drop leaf springs, 2.5" drop spindles with stock height front coils. The body is level. I don't care to know the size tire, because they'll be replaced. What tires I'm not sure yet, recommendations welcome. The wheels are 8/15".

I'm curious about that too. Seems like the consensus before they closed was that ECE was the best and all the rest are just meh.

I used CPP for my 2.5” Spindles, 2” Springs and 4” rear Drop Springs back in 2015. They have fine ever since.

Is your truck equivalent
to a C10 or C20?

[CarlsLQ9SS]

The body is rougher than a night in jail right now but I fabricated a rear flip kit, used square body u-bolts, and made the leaf spring plate out of some 1/4" steel plate i had laying around. The front is square body suburban desiel springs with 2 coils cut off. Wheels are factory 8" rally's with 275/60/15 on the rear and 255/70/15 on the front. It's a work in process and started from the frame up on it.

1971 C10 green body with yellow cab 5.5/7 drop.

Those are looking great, love the pic of the C10 between the late model Chevy's, looks like a sports car!

Not sure what a "static drop" is, so maybe mine has no "static".

[CarlsLQ9SS]

I think static is just lowering with springs and such, not on air bags.

[yellow&white72]

Mines a 5/6 drop, but has a BBC and 18 gallon fuel cell in the rear

3/5 drop

[BT71]

Finally moving under its own power after being shredded for 3 years. 4.5”/5” drop on my 69.

[sfont66]

4.5” front 4” rear drop 275/60/15 front tires 29/15/15 rear. The rear needs to be a bit Lower, but I am waiting to get new springs and shocks until I go short box next spring.

[LS short box]

So mine is "kind" of a 4.5" /6" drop. I'm running 2.5" drop spindles with 2" drop springs in the front. But due to the LS1 it's more like 4" drop. Rear is 4" drop springs and 2" blocks. Running 20" wheels all around. Speedway springs. Bell Tech shocks.
