Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

It kind of belong over here. I am still work in progress on building my truck with static drop and would like to see how it will turn out to give me some motivation along the way... As I measured frame mounts and transfer it to cab I have 8" clearance from lowest part of side cab outer rocker bottom lip. Any of you have side pic of truck with this side clearance? 64 fleatside SWB. Might go down some more, now was only frame with drivetrain.

It looks like on of those exaggerated drawings with the big wheels that you see on t-shirts. Not Ed Roth but the newer style.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Not completely done, still checking for leaks. Still need to put the c-notch in. Not sure what caps I'm running yet either. 5in drop springs out back with 2in blocks. 3 in drop coil and drop spindle in the front. HUGE, braking difference with the discs and booster, serious it unreal!

I love the stance... what size wheel and tire are you running. I have a 60 that is going down 5.5 in front and 5 in back. Im looking to run 17x8s if possible without rubbing in the front.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Thank you Steve - "Runoleum" works wonders.

Sway bar is next then I think I'm pulling the front shock mounts to figure out the new placement like in Mark's post.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

15x8, 235/75/15, I almost went with a bigger wheel. The rear is a non issue, my front may be an issue. Haven't been able to drive it around enough to tell yet but it's pretty close o the fender.

Re: How about some pics of Static dropped 60-66

Anyone else have driveshaft/pinion angle issues after adding 2 inch lowering blocks? The PO had already cut the springs, but it rode fine. Added the blocks over the weekend and the thing vibrates like hell now.
