Re: How about some pics of lowered 2wd

I lowered my 'burb with ECE 2.5" drop spindles with 1.5" drop coil springs in the front and 2" rear springs with 1" lowering blocks in the rear. The wheels are 15x8.5 and tires are 235/70's in the front and 255/70's in the rear.

It rides great. I would like to bag assist the rear sometime to help out when I am towing.

Re: How about some pics of lowered 2wd

For my '67...
Used 6" drop coils in the rear. 2" Drop spindles in the front with one complete circle cut out of stock coils, so about 4"
Tires are 275/45/20 and 285/50/20.

Yes, these are the Boss 338's.

I changed the front disk brakes over to 88 and up truck disks, so I did not have to worry about the rim hub to rotor hub interference.
Not sure if Boss has fixed that yet......

I'll try to get all my photos before and after any make my own thread soon.

How does it ride with the 6" coils? I like the stance but I would probably need to add tow bags to the rear for towing my little Airstream.
