Nice looking rims Mitch.

 

Yeah not too old school or too new school I think. Should dress it up some. I just want to get the back down some for my liking

 

Gerrymoe looked at the Classic Haulers reverse eye rear leaf part #4852. That will give me about 1.5"??
ANYONE know what the extended Y Hanger from Classic Haulers will do to my stance? Lower it or???

 

Roll under your truck and take a look. An extended shackle on 48-52 f1 will raise the truck.

Is that what you mean by extended "Y" hanger? Do you have a link?

 

Yeah just didn't know what they would do. Thanks 96

 

Its pretty simple......how much room between your axle tubes and the bottom of your chassis frame?


I suspect less than 2.5 inches where it currently sits.


Lowering the truck = "raising the rear axle" relative to the frame.


There's no point having a plan to raise it 4 inches, if 2.5 inches will have the rear axle touching the frame. (Horrible experience)


If there's room to get your further 1 or 2 inches, either reversed eyes (easily done at your local spring shop) or raising your leaf spring mounts (by 1.5 inches??) should get you there....and cheaply!!

 

To my eye it looks like the rear of the bed is higher than it should be. Maybe it's just the camera angle? How is it mounted to the frame?

 

X2 although I am unsure about changing pinion angle.

 

 

This one is a bit nose down.....and I reckon it looks PERFECT!!

 

Oz that stance is awesome. What's done there? I'll have to get under it and measure my clearance. My buddy flopped his axle and his pumpkin hits the bed with any bump. Sucks.

 

Albuquerque all stock mounts???

 

Oz mine is perfect in the front. Love it, just too high in the back. Thought about removing some leafs at on point?

 

I know your looking for low, but if the running board was fender bottom to fender bottom (as previously mentioned) and the same color like you already have planned ,I think your truck would have a perfect (in my mind anyway) rake and would look pretty cool, especially with some deep rims. By the way the PO's Idea of using bleacher materiel for the running board was genius.

 

Yeah I'm looking for low. Lol.
Looking to drop the rear 2", I think an axle flop would be too low. Wanting to know how much drop I would get if I swapped out my main leaf for a reverse eye.
