Re: C20 lowered pictures
Thanks. I'm still in the process of putting it all back together. I've cycled the suspension up and down and it air up quicker than I thought. I think that the 2600's will handle it very well.

Re: C20 lowered pictures
Wild4wheels...I have just bought a 72 Cheyenne super c20 custom camper. I want it to sit like the green and white one in your pics. What did you do to get that look?? Thanks.

Re: C20 lowered pictures
Ahh, an age old question that has been tossed around for a while. one, no, not my truck- I thought someone on the board actually knew the owner at one time. I believe it was a dropped spindle/spring combo. (4/6?) It's been a year and a half since I've searched but there was one company still making 2.5 inch dropped spindles for c-20s Airbagit? chassis tech? That teal colored c20 picture that I posted was just on ebay a couple weeks ago- I think the guy was asking 10k. Sorry I can't help more

Re: C20 lowered pictures
Thanks for the info wild4wheels. I will look into those drop spindles and leaf drops.
|
Re: C20 lowered pictures
So will these drop spindles work with the 63-70 a arms and steering components?

Re: C20 lowered pictures
I think if you do these type you will need to do a front disc conversion. I'm sure you could call the company and find out for sure.
|
Re: C20 lowered pictures
If i gotta do a disc conversion thats fine as I've been wanting to do it for a while.
Actually after a little more research I might just go with this setup. http://www.performanceonline.com/196...-DELUXE-16682/ |
Re: C20 lowered pictures
I used CPP 5" drop coils in the rear and cut 1 round out of the front.

Re: C20 lowered pictures
POL has drop spindles for c-20's. Ya gotta realign the front end afterward though... I think the steering arm length is a bit longer.

Re: C20 lowered pictures
Mine's static dropped now(2 1/2 drop spindles front & 4" drop springs out back) & going to bag it soon!http://i1109.photobucket.com/albums/...7-08_847-3.jpg

Do you have a side shot, on level ground you could post showing if the truck looks level now? I still haven't dropped mine, but it has recently moved from rural to city and this might be a good time to lower it. |
Re: C20 lowered pictures
Here it is from last weekend with my 2 bikes in it which dropped it a couple incheshttp://i1109.photobucket.com/albums/...4_095409-1.jpg

Re: C20 lowered pictures
This is it before the drop, same tires just different wheelshttp://i1109.photobucket.com/albums/...1004090750.jpg

Re: C20 lowered pictures
chevy2tom is your truck coil or leaf rear?
|
Re: C20 lowered pictures
Coil, from what I've read chevys were coil & GMC was leaf in the 3/4 ton
|
Re: C20 lowered pictures
Thanks for the pics.
Looking at the options, why did you go with drop spindles instead of coils on the front? For my 68 this would mean going to disk brakes, but I guess your truck would already have disk brakes. |

Here's mine before and after.
BEFORE (stock coils front and rear) Attachment 1311831 AFTER (2" lowering coils from GMCPauls in rear) Attachment 1311832 I've had the springs on for a couple of months now. The truck's attitude is a lot better IMO and they softened up the ride in the rear. After lowering, I had a minor clearance problem with the passenger side exhaust pipe and the upper panhard bar bracket. The bracket dented the pipe a tad. I found as long as I don't bounce the truck violently, I'm OK. I rarely load anything in back, so no problem there. |

Thanks for the pics, exactly what I was looking for. Shows the 2" in the rear with lower it, so 2/4 should drop it and have it level. |
