thats how good my u bolts i had made are. lol. although hitting something on the street still nicked one.

 

well its nice to know that I should have about 1.5 inches after my 2 inch blocks left...

 

i also have a 78 which has a different frame. and i pulled the center leaf.

 

i need a notch to be as low as i plan. it will come in to play later. i want 4" blocks and drop leafs.

and i have like 3" or 4" before my frame

 

didnt realize i was this low in the front. gotta get the back down to match

​

 

wanted to see how they looked painted. still need spacers and longer studs though

 

i finally got the spacers to put my wheels on. it raised the truck about 1 1/2"

 

Looks good! So what's next?

 

looks real good. What wheels are they??

Look like stocks

 

look like G35 wheels...... nice man. looks good on the drop but i'd bring the front down just a hair to close that slight gap it has at the moment.

 

the wheels are from a G35X, which is the 4 door model. if they had been from the coupe, the offset would be perfect. next on my to do list, if i cant get the other truck that ive been waiting on, is the body. mostly the front end. i might end up getting a whole new body cuz mine is pretty rough. as far as lowering, i'll need to tub front and rear. i could remount everything thats on my inner fenders to my firewall and cut those out, but it might get crowded and i want it to look clean. i can still bring the back down a little though and i plan to soon. oh, and just a little note, these wheels are really heavy and slow my truck way down
