Can I lay frame with 26" tall tires, 2.5" drop spindles and porterbuilt state 1 air
I have a 69 c10 sb. I have already decided to purchase the extreme drop member for the rear, but I'm wondering if it would be necessary for me to spend all of this money on the front if I don't plan on running a big wheel combo. For the foreseeable future I will be running 15" wheels with 26" tall tires on the front and rear. This made me wonder just how low the truck can go with just air and 2.5" drop spindles on the front. Thanks!

you will lay crossmember, so your frame will be off the ground about 2 inches in the front and with the extreme in the back your back will lay all the way out. so when you air out your front will sit higher than the rear.

Cool, thanks, it looks like if I want to do it right, I should just go for broke.

Plus you will get the advantages of the rack and pinion steering and the low ride height.
