I like that style alot, thats kinda what im going for with my c20, except im going to leave the body in orginal paint for now

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

That is a sweet looking truck willy. Very nice. Did you use drop spindles up front? On mine I want to lower as far as I can without swapping to disc brakes for now. Later maybe but for now I just want her rolling down the road...

Chief I have always thought that truck looked sinister...:metal:

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

Definitely a rake on that one

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

willyp, love your truck man!

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

Willy your stance is the perfect stance I'm going for. Gotta tell me springs or spindles?

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

Yep, that's it. :lol:

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

Here are a few pictures of my stance ..:ito:

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

what suspenision drop did you use on that truck? It looks good

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

2.5" drop spindles and 1.5" drop springs for the front and 6" drop springs in the rear

thanks for the comps..

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

An old stock 3/4 ton chevy should sit with the tail up and the nose dipped just a bit, that is if the springs arnt worn from the years of work

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

You've got the hot rod stance nailed! What size tires are you running?

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

thanks, 235/70/16 front and 255/70/16 rear.

I think he cheated with his torsion bars. :lol:

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

Willy - did that 6 inch drop involve a c notch ?

Thanks,

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

Willy I measured mine the same way you did just for kicks, mine was at 9 inches front, 14 rear at the bottom of each bumper.

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

kick ass stance rich!

red, c notch not required with the early classic enterprises drop kit.

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

i tend to like mine a little higher than most guys do but i think a little drop in the front always looks great!

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

Hey Papa Kent that's real nice. What was done suspension-wise to achieve the stance?

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

well thankyou! I just installed (light duty) factory coils in the rear,(not the heavier progressive coils) and cranked down the torsion bars a bit.when i purchased it last fall it had heated coils on it and was to low for me and it rides on 245/60 15's.

Re: Best "Rake/Stance" for a Hot Rodded 60-66 C10?
 

I know these pictures aren't great for stance but I like the back up a bit myself. So This truck has 2.5" drop spindles and 3 " drop coils in the front and 5" drop in the back. Thats only 1/2" difference but when you stand back and look at these trucks they look like the back is higher to begin with because of the way the box bottom ends.
