Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

Can I do a static 2/ 4 drop on my 72 short box fleet 2 wheel drive 350 with out dropped spindles ?
I was told no that I need spindles because springs would be compromised is this true.
Thank you all.

There are kits out there for that lowering configuration with springs and shocks.

a 2 inch spindle will give you a stock ride. a 2 inch coil will give you close to stock but handle better. either way, you can do one or the other...... and if combined it will give you 4 inches

you can do just a 2 inch spindle = best ride

you can do just a 2 inch coil = awesome ride

you can cut a loop off the stock springs and also get 2 inches = good ride
