Inner Fenders with 5/7 drop?
 

I have a 68 C10 with a 5/7 drop...currently it does not have inner fender but I am looking to add some. Does anyone have stock inners with a 5/7 drop?
Thanks

Re: Inner Fenders with 5/7 drop?
 

5/7 w/inner fenders is no problem depending on tire OD. Less than 8" wide wheels w/under 28" tire height will minimize contact. The wider things go or the taller the tire & it will likely buzz @ the extreme inside/outside.

It will definitely occur w/more drop.

5-6" front drop; ~8" rear drop; 27.5" OD 15x6.5" wheel & no rubbing under 'normal' daily driving conditions:

Worst case, there are aftermaket alternatives.....

For 67-72's, Hills look more OE.
For 73-87's Slosh Tubs are the only choice to date.

I have 4.5"/7" with 235 55 17 on 8" wide rim with 4.5" backspace and have no rubbing issues. That extra 1/2" might do you in, but probably not. Especially with a 7" rim.

I've seen your info before on similar subjects as I bet you've seen mine. Do you have a reference pic for people to gauge your set-up when they're researching this stuff?

Could you post your tire sizes,looks like a nice combo

Re: Inner Fenders with 5/7 drop?
 

In that pic, the fronts were 215/75's & rears were 255/70's. Fronts eventually went to 225/70's because I wanted matching tread (BFG Radial T/A's).

SCOTI. love the looks of that truck....

Re: Inner Fenders with 5/7 drop?
 

Thanks..... It was a cool truck. 6cyl w/3 on the tree. Tugged cars/trucks around on my trailer pretty well too so it was very functional.

:metal:

Yes. Just trying not to hog everybody's threads with my junk! 2.5" drop spindle ECE disc conversion, 2" drop spring with stock length KYB front shocks. 7" drop in rear with DJM flip kit and CalTrac bars. Same stock length KYB front shocks moved to alternate position on leaf spring rear upper shock mount. Removed factory pads from above bump stop mount on axle housing and mounted urethane bumps on frame that came with DJM kit. No notch.

235 55 17 on 17x8 4.5" Summit Legend wheel in front (27" tall). 275 55 17 on 17x9 5" bs in rear same wheel (29" tall).
