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

Here's mine, 5/4 with 18's, thinking about going another 1" in the rear, so as to have just a little rake.
Question though... if I get it aligned now, and lower it later, will that throw off my alignment? Like to do it
just once if possible.

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

Good looking truck, 62much! Tossing a 1" block in the back won't cause issues with your front end alignment.

Didn't think so, but wasn't real sure.

Thanks

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

Coming from you that means a LOT! I've worked my tail off on it. Oh yeah, it's got a nasty big block and a TREMEC 5 spd... Effortless burnouts at any speed and pulls 110 mph in 3rd gear (7000rpm!). I haven't worked up the nutz to run it out in 4th (hmmm, did I tighten all the nuts & bolts? )

Here's what's under the skin -

Thought those were his door handles and all I could think of was the name of his TV program. Thanks.

Wow, outstanding looking chassis!

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

EricSean, what setup do you have front and rear?

I'm assuming 5.5" drop front and 7" drop rear?

Thanks, Rg

Not sure the guys who owned it cut the front springs and heated the back. I am working now on fixing everything.

Looks like it's gonna be a good one! Curious about the body work. Did you guys strip the paint on the box or DA it?
