Thank you Sir. All the credit goes to my exhaust guy for that, I just told him where I wanted everything.

There is no link to the red truck. He actually just sold the truck to someone that had to have it more than him.

You going to have that truck done this year?

Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

Here are some very old pictures of mine (like 10 years ago). The paint did NOT hold up well over the years, and the engine didn't last either. It has sat for many years waiting for me to have the funds to finish it. I decided not to continue with the "race car" look because I like living, and going 130+ mph in these trucks, even with a cage, is not the safest thing. I'm currently making plans for an air ride setup with porterbuilt stuff, a ready to bolt in engine to get it moving and of course paint and body work. Should be done before the end of the year. It did look pretty cool set up like this though.

You would have to ask member way2lo2.
That big lip on the rear wheels required narrowing the rearend 4" (total).
I'm guessing this is way2lo2's simple bag set-up including drop spindles.
Shoot Boris a PM and I'm sure he'll give you the specs.

Those Billet Specialties "Bonneville" wheels are major purchase ($$$), but they are my favorite!

Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

I agree. Boris killed it on that one.

And it is Boris' simple setup with a cnotch added and a 2" block in the rear.

With the front wheels tucked that much do you ever rub on the outside fenders when you turn? If not what size tires you running. I have mine tore down to the frame and with 3" blocks in the back I thought I could never lower the front enough to match the rear and not rub when turning. I don't have inner fenders so not worried about them.

Re: How about some pics of Static Dropped C-10's

Oh yeah... Wouldn't have any suspension travel if I didn't. From what I've read/heard anything more than 4" drop should have a notch, but some say you can run an axle flip without, but with the 2" blocks as well I needed it
