That isn't a "dropmember" though. That is a raised crossmember. Where did you purchase that one from?

Look real close and you will see the initials "PB" ... pretty sure it's a dropmember.

I think you need at least three more arrows to really get the point across.

FnLow69 · 02-26-2010, 11:44 AM

No, its a Poterbuilt Dropmember made for 2x4 frames.

Thanks guys, I was beginning to wonder if anyone here other than me appreciates sarcastic humor!

I've been wondering how many of these trucks with dropmembers are finished and actually get driven some. I've started driving mine quite a bit although mine wasn't built to win show trophies. It has old paint and trim, inside of the bed isn't finished, etc.

**67cheby** · 02-26-2010, 03:14 PM

Show off !!!

I'd say the dropmember is a considerable investment, and had I the means to purchase one it would be tough to justify not driving it every chance I got. Not only because of the expense but to experience the enhanced geometry and steering. Not to mention the looks.

Beautiful truck btw.

royo · 02-26-2010, 07:57 PM

this is with drop spindles

No worries, it could be easy to confuse the original style Dropmember with the competition's piece.

Ronm909 · 02-27-2010, 12:27 PM

Dropmembered V3.2..another unfinished project. waiting on my porterbuilt control arms. at least most of you have probably driven a C10 truck before. I never had the pleasure thanks to this site, was just gonna lower it a little

**67cheby** · 02-27-2010, 12:30 PM

"i was just going to lower it a little bit", i think on this thread you are "Preaching to the choir" ...... werent we all!!

Ronm909 · 02-27-2010, 12:48 PM

**67cheby** · 02-27-2010, 12:50 PM

PBFAB.COM · 02-27-2010, 01:35 PM
