** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Drew, I'm not trying to be hypocritical, but it looks like the cab could go back some more to get the front tire centered in the wheel well. Maybe about 1-1 1/2" or so.

Yeah, the cab slid a little in all the fighting. It is just sitting on the frame, I'm still afraid to commit.

I measured 12" at the front of the rocker and 13" at the rear. I'm running a 28" front tire and a 31" rear tire. I have a 5" drop in the front and a 7" drop in the rear. Hope this helps let me know if you need any other measurements.

Thanks Rob!! Thanks HGS-notes??? !!

If you extrapolate both of your information, ya'lls measurements are within a half inch of each other. This makes me more sure of the numbers. More to compare would really solidify if anyone else wants to whip out a tape measure.

Using these 2 trucks, I have a hunch I am about a half inch higher than a stock 1972 truck. Not bad at all, but of course I was hoping to be lower before doing my bags and drop.

Thanks again to both of you spending a little time on my behalf. Let me know if I can ever do the same.
