had to go lower

Post by 72ranger »

yep,
After my semi-shackle flip the rear dropped 3 in. and the truck sat level. then i cut 1 1/2 coils off the front coils and dropped the front 2 in. which gave a raked look, but the ass end looked to high now so i removed the helper springs and dropped the rear another 1/2 in. So now i have a 2 -3.5 in. dropped truck and the bottom of the fenders sit less then 1/2 in. above the tires. ground to bottom of fender 26.5 in front and 28.5 rear. my front tires are 255x60x15 which equals 26 in. tall and in the rear 275x60x15 which equal 28 in. I happy with the final stance of the truck. Sorry no pics yet my camera is still busted.
