Re: My 73 c10 project.....

Dude, could you do me a favor and measure the bottom of your rear frame rail to the ground when you are layed out level? I think I have to notch mine more to lay the rear out more.... but I need a dimension. Thanks!

Re: My 73 c10 project.....

i finally got a chance to measure how high the rear of the truck is while laid out and i measure from the rear part of the rear leaf spring hanger and it sits about 4 inches of the ground...... so if you stand from the rear of your truck and measure the lowest part of the leaf spring hanger is reading 4 inches, your truck seem to sit pretty low tho based on the pics you have posted before..... anyway i hope this helps....

Re: My 73 c10 project.....

Rad! Thanks man! I don't have leaf spring hangers, but i'm assuming you measured to the bottom of the frame at that location?
