How about some specs? Amount of drop, what you did to get it, wheel and tire sizes...?

yea ezernut,

i remember that thread to, i recall it being rootbeer or something to that effect.

KF100TK,

it almost looks like you have some positive camber in your frontend,unless the pics are just fooling me.i know mine did with the beams and the stock springs, so i cut 1 half out and it looked (to the eye)to be real straight, but then i cut another half round out and it went just a tad neg. anyway around it you have a great looking bump there :thup: . i know all about having to wait on wheels myself, took me 4 months to get mine after being told it would be 6 weeks. guess they were running a little behind on yours to hu?

Good catch :wink: I guess chip did,nt want to make the 5 on 5.5. I had to get new axles and re drill the drums and rotors .
I wanted the 5 on 4.5 but they figured that the hub on our rotors would be to large. This is close as i get to chebby. :lol:
