Another Dropmember version???? :) - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

PLANETGETLOW · 08-31-2010, 09:41 AM

The fab work and R&D is awesome but will the price of these complete kits be out-of-reach? It looks like there's more than just a cylinder bolt on kit.

dirtyd_nd · 09-10-2010, 09:49 PM

Nate,

Just wondering if this is going to be an option? Or is it not possible?

Mieser3 · 09-11-2010, 11:11 AM

Was just wondering if this setup was still going to be produced?

Would love to put this in my next build as I don't want to bag my truck.

PBFAB.COM · 09-11-2010, 06:44 PM

Yes it's possible. Stay tuned for more pics and info.

Mieser3 · 09-11-2010, 09:18 PM

Awesome!

We didn't finish in time....

We might end up painting the blazer now so we didn't want to slam it back together to make the show. It is almost there...

Hey nate is this version out yet? My uncle saw my dropmember, wants one but I cant convince him to run bags. He has a 2wd 72 k5, this would be perfect.

PBFAB.COM · 04-13-2011, 02:45 PM

We have been working hard on a performance based front and rear system that uses coil-overs.

We have two systems that will be available soon (just a little more testing to do and will be production ready).

One has a 6" ride height: measured from the bottom of the flat section of frame rail under the cab of the truck to the ground. The matching rear for this kit will include a "short notch" that will require raising the bed-floor approx. 4".

The other has a higher ride height, and is less invasive. It uses our stage 2 rear notch out back. No cutting of the bed-floor on this version.

As mentioned, this kit is all business.

I'm still keeping my eyes on this.

I don't have any money, but IF I did I'd be first in line.

You don't need money dude... I've been buying stuff from Nathan using a little plastic card... zero cash required.
