Spindles and springs up front flip kit in the rear

Hey therapy, how much drop is this in the front and rear? You mentioned spindles and springs up front but didn't say how much each was. I really like the looks of your truck!

Do you have any other pics of your truck by chance? I would love to see the front and rear suspension up close.

Great job!

I dont have any suspension pics..Has 2 inch spindles,2 inch springs with a coil cut.. Rear is a flip kit I believe that is like 5 and then the over load removed placed on top to dearch the spring to give it even more drop. Has drop shocks on all 4 corners and and a min c in the rear frame rails..This is now my Daily/Project cause I got rid of the other square got a 50 model and now got rid of that.....Im now in the process of buying everything to bag the daily grind..

Actually I do all my own work, certified welder, used to do iron work til the economy took a dive. Now I manage the Midas Auto Service in Lodi. Still might get ahold of you for some help, thanks I appreciate that. Hey what would you charge to install a cnotch like you have?

Is there anyone out there can help me out with my dilemma. I have a '85 GMC SWB. 2WD that I'm currently restoring. I want to do a static drop on my truck. The wheels that I'm gonna run are a 24x9 with a 255/30/24 in the front and a 24x15 with a 405/25/24 in the rear. I don't want to bag my truck. Can some please help a brother out?

Bigsmitty75:
R u going to have room to run a 15" wide rear wheel and not narrow the frame? If u don't have to narrow the rear frame: Just do a flip rear kit (5-7" drop) and 3" spindles and 2" coils for the front.
If u do have to narrow the rear frame: it sounds like u r in over ur head, find a shop close to u and pay them to do it...

I am going to narrow my rear end in order to accommodate the 24x15 rim in the rear.
