Front is 2" drop spindle with 3" drop coil but i have a 1/2" spacer on it so the fron is 4 1/2" drop.

Rear is 2" drop hanger, 2" drop shackle and 2" drop leaf spring with the over load removed so that makes the rear 6 1/2" drop.

Also had to add a bolt in c-notch, all my parts used are belltech.

If i was to do it again i would just do a flip kit in the rear, but i only wanted 4" drop in the rear before i went lower and lower....

Roger, I'm still waiting for your rolling burnout vid w/o standing on the brakes.

Ya, like John, I too wondered why u couldn't have gotten correct b/s, but for $200 I see why. Nice score on some sweet wheels.
I figured u had the cladding finished, weren't u workin on that quite a while back?
