Re: static drop pics

Re: static drop pics
 

First off love the truck and can never forget the blazer, do you know how tall the tires on the truck compare to the tires on the blazer?

Re: static drop pics
 

Truck tires are:
215/70-15
275/60-15

Blazer tires are:
245/40-20
295/40-20

Here's the blazer air'd out,.... with the same size tires on 15" ralleys.

Re: static drop pics
 

Do you have any pics of the blazer at ride height with either set of wheels?

Re: static drop pics
 

This is approximate ride height,... I can drive it lower,... but this is where the front alignment was good.

Re: static drop pics
 

Nice :) now I gotta ask you after bagging the blazer and comparing that too the other two trucks do you plan to bag them also or you content with the static drop? The reason I ask is due to the tight budget im on im contemplating going back to static

Re: static drop pics
 

I drove my blazer static dropped for a couple years.
That gave me time to save money for the air bags and a "good" air management system.

Driving my red truck, as low as it is,... looks cool,... but you really have to watch things in the road.
The a-arms are really close to the ground.
A 4/6 drop is much more streetable.
I'd like to put a set of cheap 20's on the red truck,... but they would rub the inner fenders. (and I don't really want to remove them)

I love the adjustability of air bags.
Plus the ride is great.

My next truck project will have a Dropmember under the front.
You get the best of both worlds.
Really low ride height,... plus increased ground clearance.

Re: static drop pics
 

Ya all im missing for suspension is the air management I've thought about selling my thorbecke a arms to pay for it. Just don't know what to do by the way do you know what the 6 lug 5x7 rallies are off of ihave a set of 5x8's but like how you did yous

Re: static drop pics
 

They were on some 70's 4x4 blazers,... from what I've been told.
They are really hard to find.
I have a buddy that has 4 or 6 of them, but I think he's just hoarding them. Ha.

Re: static drop pics
 

I would probably hoard em too lol

Re: static drop pics
 

just about ready to say that too, Keith!!

Re: static drop pics
 

Thanks guys. I buzz the inner fender every now and then. Lolife I know you would have rub issues. By the way, the blazer is really cool.

Re: static drop pics
 

2500hd, killer truck!!

Keith,

why are you hesitant to remove the inner fenders? (on the red truck)

Re: static drop pics
 

I'm not really working on the '69 right now.
My plan is to keep it static dropped on 15's and just drive it.
(maybe 15" Torq Thrust Original A spoke wheels or Torq Thrust D's some day)

Pulling the inner fenders just makes a mess under the hood.
Plus I have a long gravel driveway.
I can see rocks exiting the tires and dimpling the underside of the hood.

Re: static drop pics
 

Ok I gotcha, lol

The reason I asked is because my inner fenders are still outta my truck, from installing the drop parts. Before they get reinstalled they were getting a fresh coat of paint. I have been driving around without them for a month or so, and it does get the underside of the hood dirty, but I try not to drive the truck in the rain (no gravel here either)

Just a question for ya.......Thanks

btw, that blazer is just toooooo cooolllll!!!

Here's my '69 running an ECE 4.5/6" Drop and 6-lug disc brakes:

Re: static drop pics
 

What size tires are you running?

Re: static drop pics
 

Thanks for the comment. Don't have any more pics at this time, it's at my buddy's shop where we are installing the motor. Tires are 245/40/20 and 295/35/20

Edit. I have these, but in this set the 2" blocks aren't installed in the rear.

Re: static drop pics
 

So does it have a motor in it in the pics?

Re: static drop pics
 

Yes, it had a big block installed in these pictures.

Re: static drop pics
 

Let us know how it rides with the 245/40's up front when she's back on the road.

Re: static drop pics
 

Oooooooooooh, I'll play, No Air here except A/C :haha:

Front ~ 5.5 ~ 20 X 8.5 ~ 245/45

Rear ~ 7.25 ~ 22 X 9.0 ~ 265/35

Re: static drop pics
 

How's the ride Craig?

Re: static drop pics
 

Comparable to a Corvette, Stops like 1 too! :D

Re: static drop pics
 

http://www.riverdavesplace.com/forum...1&d=1285001748

4.5/6 from ECE

20x8.5
20x10

I would love to go an extra inch all the way around to really set off the looks but I think it will be a mistake for as much as I drive the truck. It rides really nice right now and I have only scrubbed the inner fenders once on a big freeway bump and only hit the axel on the frame twice going over train tracks.

Not to mention I am going to add LT headers and I think I will end up dragging the collectors.

Re: static drop pics
 

lolife99 how did you fit rallies on that static drop red truck how did you lower it????? i have a 78 shortbox stepside with 2.5 dropped spindles 1" dropped coils and i put rallies on the truck and they rubbed on the lower ball joint on the stock a arm.

Re: static drop pics
 

You have to trim the lower a-arms.
(gind a small amount off the lower a-arm lip)

Mine has 3" drop springs and 2.5" drop spindles up front.
6" rear drop spring with a 1.5" lowering block.

Re: static drop pics
 

4/6 drop here on old school 15's.

Hopefully 20" billet is in the near future :metal:
