4/6 Drop almost done - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

5150 · 08-13-2005, 08:54 PM

Well, I almost got done. I would have except the the bolts that holds the brake dust protector(brain fart). Won't go all the way into the new drop spindles. I had three extra bolts for the driver's side but not for the passenger side. My wife went to Advance for me to get some stuff and they gave her metric bolts. So I'll finish up tomorrow.

Some of you guys that have done this are right about the upper shock mounts. They are a pain in the ass. I got the passenger side done in about 45 minutes with a air chisel, but the driver's side was rusted and some IDIOT PO just welded in back on. I can't put on the upper shock relocator until I have somebody with a welder come over and fix it.

Here's a few shots of the day.

Here's a shot of how it's sitting right now.

We had company coming over so I couldn't go back to Advance and get the bolts.

I said it before I'll say it again - Man, that truck is SWEET! Can't wait to see the stance when you're done.

Those look like different wheels - or is it just a different angle?

GMan69 · 08-14-2005, 07:50 AM

Lookin' good, Bryan! When did you get it home?

Thanks for the link, Bryan. Truck looks AWESOME!!! The color, the flames, the stance, all perfect. Congrats! I can't wait to see it.

Looks good.

I see you have the stock panhard bar on in the pics, did you also get the super-trac adjustable bar?
