With a notch the 4 link is all you need to be as low as you want. I think you only even need like a 2 to 3 in notch to lay frame.

Ok.......Just got off the phone with Haggard Fab. Trucks getting notched next Thursday. Now I just need to get some more cash together for my lowering leafs by h20.

[LOCALTHIRTEEN]

I think it came out looking good, needs alittle poke in the front, but other then that I like it.

Thanks I agree completely

i really like it, the 2nd pic makes it looks like the rear could come down a little. how much more low you going for?

A lot more low, but im maxed out right now without custom fab work or I learn a little more about these S10's. Im currently looking into drop leafs and a c notch for the rear now. I don't know if the leafs will get me any lower with out doing a custom rear 4link setup. If that is the case, Im looking into doing it over the winter or spring with a custom coilover setup.

I agree I want more poke. 1.25" spacers will be ordered asap or at least by h20. Height wise though, this is where im stuck at for now. Not to bad for its first trip to h20 and only having it for a few months. By next season Ill have it looking exactly how I envision it.

Any opinions on what you think guys? Do I go with a bigger tire now cause ill be setting my self up for when I am lower and wider? Or do I try to make it work for the current stance?

[LOCALTHIRTEEN]

Im not sure about the 195-55-16s now......... Don't know what tire to run. I like the look of the 195 55 16 but part of me feels like maybe I should run something different. Ultimately moar low is the plan. With the 195s I would be perfect for sitting lower. Im really particular when it comes to my stance. I now wish I woulda went with 1.25" spacers for the 195's. We will see if I can change that by h20, but as of right now this is gonna be pretty much how she sits for now.

Busy weekend for sure. Belltech front shocks are in and driving like a dream. Pinon and rear dif cover seals have been replaced. My buddy Matt had a set of junk tires lying around in the size I was planning on running so we mounded them up to get a real test fit. This is where we are at.

How do you make the polishing look so easy?. I polished a set of aluminum wheels for a mercedes once, and getting through the anodizing was a humongous pain in the ass. .

First step is hitting them with the air craft stripper. Then cleaning before starting the polishing process.

How much are the adapters gonna push the wheels out?

The test photo is with the rear adapters on. The front test fit was me sitting the wheel out 1in. I should be like 6mm of poke front and 10mm rear if my math is correct. The spacers are 1" front and 1" rear but the rear offset of the wheels are lower.

Tomorrow will be a big day. Gonna pull the bed off and reseal my diff. Put my new Beltech Sp shocks in and hopefully finish the wheels. The adapters came in last night too. The plan is to knock all this out so Monday I can mount some tires and start figuring what stays what gets rolled and what gets cut the fuck out of there. From what I can figure I may only need to roll and flatten the rear inner fenders. The fronts on the other hand.............are gonna need to get cut smashed flattened and pulled possibly. We shall see. Where there is a hammer and grinder there is a way.
