I saw them. They do look familiar.

I just know you've been wanting to get those caps on for a while.

 

Looks much better with the new mirrors

 

sweet looks u got goin' there!!

 

Looks badass. Makes me miss mine.

 

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

 

very nice, I wish you were closer and we could take" stupid low on static drop" truck pics together :o

 

The next pics I want to take are highway shots. That is after I get some 1 inch blocks.

 

so now that i have a good paying job i am planning on going lower (for real this time) i have the 2.5 arms do you think i would have any trouble with 2.5" arms/2" spindles/1" belltech strut?

also how is the rear? you have stock leafs right? mine is way too soft and i couldnt imagine going lower than the 6" im at now, unless with the notch it has enough travel. i suppose that if i use a 6" pipe for the notch and go 1" lower i would still gain 2" of travel...

 

I am at 5.5 in the front also. But at that drop you will.rub the frame and the front crossmember on big bumps. The rear you will have to notch the frame for anything over 6". I am at 8" now and I need 1" more in the back to be level.

 

what is going to rub? the control arm? and yeah i plan to do a notch even if i stay at 6" it bottoms out way too much.

 

Sorry about the lack of info I gave. I had more than a few drinks last night......


5.5" front: The top of the tire rubs the inner fender, the crossmember scraps the ground if I don't go out of my driveway correctly, And the frame itself is very low. So you have to watch out for speed bumps. As far as modifying, you will have to notch the front crossmember holes and trim the tie rods.

Rear: Not really any problems. I am running the stock leafs. Just make sure you have the right sized tire or you will tear them up! I was running a 285/35 to start with and ended up with 265/35. The 285 was just a hair too wide and I shaved the outer wall of the tire everytime the suspension moved up or down.

I hope this helps youu a little.

 

yes it does help, and as far as the modifying, my tie rods are already cut(did it to get a straight steering wheel) and i actually have to repair one of the control arm holes because of my the bolt coming loose and it wobbled around enough to oblong the hole...and im going to try to get away with 285/35/22 on a 22x9.5 wheel with 30mm offset, which i did the math and it puts the wheel at the same place as your harley wheels (on the outside and just adds half inch to the inside) and i will trim my fenders like the guy with the back truck did and hope that enough, if not and its really close ill mill down the back of my wheels

 

jsvo, got any pics of your notch? also im assuming you also had to notch the bed crossmember?

 

Something cool showed up today!!

 

how is your turning radius after those spindles? mine has been practically doubled....i cant seem to find out what it is hitting that is stopping it from turning but it does not turn very far at all
