Dropmember and static drop

Is anyone running a static drop using the front porterbuilt dropmember?

Re: Dropmember and static drop

Im sure Nate will chime in with a few pics of what it looks like. Ill be going this route on my truck eventually as it allows you with Porterbuilts design to run a big block or LS motor with a quick change of the motor mounts

Re: Dropmember and static drop

I am curious too, I would think coil overs would be a great setup.

Re: Dropmember and static drop

The coil-over Dropmember still has a couple small tweaks I making to the upper coil-over mount.

As for the "static" that Kris was referring to, I had mentioned to him that there have been a number of DM owners who elected to bi-pass an air management system and use a schrader valve set-up for a "static" height, with the option for adjusting it with a shop compressor.
