hey guys, im looking at a mcgaughys 4.5/6 drop kit and id like to see specifically 4/6 drop pics on short bed trucks with 15" wheels if possible. Ill take a pic of any wheel style/size but im mainly interested in this drop with 15s at the current time.

thanks guys!

Here is my old '79. It was about 4/6, with 15" ralley wheels.

their not 15's but,it is a 4/6.beltech 3 in. drop spindles and a 1in. drop coil.their nitro shocks.it's flipped and cnotched in the back.a 4/6 works well on these trucks.it's low enough to look good and still offers good driveabilty.i added a sway bar and it really hugs.i think you'll like the 4'6.one word of caution.some have had clearance issues with drop spindles and stock rallies.it can be worked out though.

lookin good jonboy.

Still don't be surprised if you have to do some grinding.
