Perfect Stance
I was searching through this site and saw a picture of this truck. This is exactly the stance I am looking to achieve with my 70 GMC Shotrbox. Can anyone tell me what was done to achieve this stance? Wheel sizes? Tire sizes? Is the owner on this board? I would like some extra pics of the suspension.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! -Charlie |

I have to agree on everything except the wheels. I'm sure they are 20's but they are Eagle Alloy wheels.

Re: Perfect Stance
Thanks for the input! I am really looking for some details about the setup. I would like to try to duplicate it, if possible.

Re: Perfect Stance
Bagged with a c-notch will get you there. Depending on front wheel backspacing, you might be able to drive it at that height. -Chris

Re: Perfect Stance
I think this is the same truck~(maybe not) the second pic I lowered in photoshop.

Re: Perfect Stance
The wheels look the same but the trucks look different (different bumpers, mirrors, 67-68 nose). They could be the same trucks but a lot of work was done.
I really appreciate the comments and input from the community but I am really looking for some details. Tire sizes? Wheel sizes? Offsets? IFS? Suspension setup? btw - nice photoshop work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! |

67Fleets:
RE7 bags front and rear. 2.5" spindles, CPP Notched rear, Suicide Doors bag brackets with the bottom cup cut to about 1", 20" wheels with 4.5" offset (I think) don't recall the tire size. |

Re: Perfect Stance
Wow, 5.25 seems like a lot. Looks good though and I would say that's about the same stance. My truck isn't that low yet, but will be when I upgrade to strong arms because I will cut about 2" off my cups as well.

Re: Perfect Stance
Yep, that's a lot. Look how far they tuck in. This helps get you lower in the front without removing the fenderliners.

Re: Perfect Stance
If you're going to upgrade to strong arms you won't need cups... right?

Re: Perfect Stance
I am only using the uppers for now, so I will still need the lower cup. The only reason I am upgrading the uppers is the price difference between rebuilding my stock ones and relacing them is like $100. Nobody has the upper bal joints and bushings in stock, so I figured I would order from Porterbuilt and they come complete.

Re: Perfect Stance
Also forgot to mention that 67Fleet has 2" blocks in the back as well (I recall 2" blocks anyway).

Re: Perfect Stance
I get sad every time I see pics of my truck while it was still driveable. It sucks coming home from work every day and seeing it all disassembled. I'm slowly making progress. Think I'm gonna order the KP step notch and still thinking about dropping the dough for Porterbuilt's dropmember.....
