more info please... leaf springs? what ones? how much adjustments in ride height are there? im looking for that stance, with a nice 295 or maybe 315 out back. if you can pm me with price and what not. that truck is sick, any chance of getting rim and tire dimensions and backspacing? absolutly beautiful. that pic right there may keep me from backhalf my truck. sits really nice. these things make the truck hook right up? what size tire, and how close to the frame is it?

Re: caltracs on a 5 6 drop

Thats a 15x10 with 275/60/15

The truck is now on a custom set of leafs that we made, with a 3" block, and it hits alot harder then before.

The truck would spin the tires on the rims with the old rear set up.
