Re: original-71 update pics after new shoes and drop

Hector - your truck looks absolutely SICK!!!! I actually went with your tire size for mine because I love the stance. Quick question, with your stance, did you install a drop crossmember and how close is your rear axle from the frame?? I am trying to drop the rear and really don't want to put in a c-notch/drop crossmember unless I have to. I appreciate it!

thanks for the compliment. stock crossmember. if i remember right about an 1-1/2 rear axle to frame, just trim your bump stops, no c-notch no bottom out issues, but i dont put anything in the back either, not sure what your plans are as long as you dont put anything in back i wouldnt worry about the c-notch IMO but if you are then i would do it.
