how much drop to level?

[mike14_07]

piecing together my 5/7 drop. all i can find is 3" drop front springs. i have 6" rear springs, im guessingi need 1.5" blocks? or are these trucks more than 2" in the back?

3" drop springs are all there is in front. to get to the 5" up front, you would need to do
drop springs 3" plus 2" drop spindles, but you need 17"+ wheels.
or
2.5" spindles and 2" springs, best with 17"+ wheels also
or
2.5" spindles and bag the front, best with 17"+ wheels also

Have fun!

The front A arms start to get really close to the ground.......also even if someone is running 17" wheels the only thing that really counts is diameter of the tire wheel combo.......lower profile 17" can be the same diameter as a tall 15" tire/wheel combo...

Your right Keith, I guess I should have stated it different.

I have 15" wheels and I have a 4/5" drop. with 8" wide wheels and 255/60/15's on, I rub on tight turns. I put some 15x6.5" wheels on with 235/70/15's and now I no longer rub.

With another 1" of drop as the OP stated, My calculations in my head were that it would rub ALOT more.

sorry if I miss stated
