That looks good! How does it ride since it's just dropped by the springs?

It has the same original ride. Pretty smooth.

I really like the stance of your truck, lowered just enough but not too low and that tire size combo is perfect. I looked through your build thread (you do awesome work btw ) but I didn't see if you used drop spindles or coils?

Re: Post Pics of your Static Drops!!

I was looking through this thread and realized that I have not posted my truck here yet. Here’s my 62 with a 77 front end. 2” drop spindles and 2” drop coils up front and 4” drop coil and 1” blocks in the rear.
