Re: 66 suburban aka the sub

Well hard to tell in the pictures i have 3 inch springs in the front with a 2 1/2 drop spindles, and in the rear i have 4 inch drop springs with 2 inch blocks may see how that comes out,the tires in the pics are really small,will steal my 69 c10 wheels off when i get it home for reference.It has 20x10 in the rear and 20x8 in the front, then i may go 22 in the rear of the burb,the truck has a 4x6 drop on it
