I was wrong on the spring size (they were 2" but needed 1.5") so I fixed it in my original post. These were the parts I ordered-

1 x​	McGaughys 2.5" Drop Spindles 73-87 Chevy GMC TruckSUV 33154 (MC33154)	​
1 x​	McGaughys 2" Front Lowering Coils 73-87 Chevy GMC C-10 33128 (MC33128)

Where did you get this parts? Online store? Amazon?

@Scott91370 Easton wants to know what wheel size that is. He wants to go 20”. What offset as well. He LOVES the look. As soon as he drops it wheels are next and then Dad is off the clock!!!

Tetanus has 2" spindles and 3" springs up front, and a flip in the rear. Gonna raise the front an inch because it hits the inners as you turn....

Man, that’s so low, it looks bagged. I ordered 2.5” springs and 2.5” spindles. I might have to rethink that. This is the look I’m going for.

It's too low for stock inners, but not bagged low. I'll raise it an inch and send it down the road, the next owner can decide what they wanna do.
That red truck is too raked for my taste, but it looks good.

If you're not opposed to cutting springs, buy a set of stock 454 springs and cut a coil off. The stiffer big block spring provides a decent ride even when cut.

I ordered them from GrunionFabrication.com I'm sure they had the best prince at the time.

Brings the wheel/tire combo out near the edge of the fender.

You said, 'Off the clock." That's funny. I was off the clock 2 years ago an here we are, still going.


Sorry it took so long to answer. I usually don't get on the forum over the weekend and if I'm busy at the office I may miss a day or two during the week.
