Lowered 62 with torsion bars and 2 1/2 dropped spindles
Anyone have some pics of a 60-62 lowered long bed fleetside with 2 1/2" dropped spindles with torsion bars adjusted down for maximun drop. Any problems encountered. Oh yeah I plan on lowering the rear with lowered springs and blocks and probably a c notch. Thanks in advance.

chevytrucknut61 you have a beautiful truck. In the pic of your truck do you have the torsion bars turned down with the 2 1/2 " dropped spindles? Thanks Runningiron

Mine has no drop spindles. Rear bags. AL has drop spindles, blue truck. BOTH SHORT BEDS.
Weel alignment, bump stop remove.

Nice looking truck. How much is it lowering and is there any scraping issues during normal city driving. What size tires up front?

Rear baged, set at 11.5" at rear frame for side to side rub on inner tubs. The inward bump on tubs contact during corners. Front is way more turned out that recommend. I did this knowing that Porterbuilt front is next. The pork chops drag driveway.
