1990 454 SS Pickup

I don't remember them sitting that high in the back.
Is that stock?

I based it off of many detailed pictures of an original truck with less than 600 miles on the odometer. I know I got the height right, but I think I put them about 1/4" too close to the taillights.

I think you did the stickers just fine.
I was talking about the truck on the whole.

Yes. That’s stock height for that truck.

Oh, lol. Yeah, it's stock in the back. I think the short 295/50's make it look taller. Maybe the roll pan amplifies it too? It has been axle flipped in the past, then un-flipped. The front still has drop spindles but has unknown springs crammed in there to get the height back up. It may be 1/2" lower than stock up front.

I have always loved these trucks and its great to see another getting back on the road. I searched for a white one for years but never could find one at the right price or time. I think white was only available in '93 and with so few produced and the prices now, doubtful I'll ever get one.

Other trucks on my list...Sonoma GT, S10SS, and one of the few Syclones that weren't black. And a 1st gen Lightning.

I guess my buddies truck from long ago was lowered as his is the reference I have.
This is a photo of a truck similar to the one that I knew...

Somehow I ended up with a couple new pairs of lowering shackles and it was long before I owned this truck, lol. I'll install a pair sometime eventually, after I tend to some other projects.
