Any truck applications? Particularly the f100's?

Probably not anytime soon. The F100 Ford trucks used a twin I beam front suspension up to 1997 or so. This style suspension does not lend its elf well to ride height modifications for handling enhancements. Most of these guys are swapping in an aftermarket front suspension. Wish I had better news on that one...cool trucks!

We WILL be doing the 63-72 C10 trucks soon though.

Looks like this could be a good option for our new family hauler. Do/will you have ride height pics and details for a 66 Chevelle?

Bret, will you be able to upgrade to the MuscleBar as a part of the StreetGrip kit? And does the MB come with the Delrin sleeve? I cannot remember of it has the sleeve and could not find it on the site...admittedly did not look real hard tho. :wacko:

This is a great package you guys have put together.

Hey,

We've actually got the tire sizes & ride height dimensions published on our website, along with pictures. :twothumbs.

Also, here are a couple of pretty cool videos that show how much the delrin bushings really help. If you watch the around the shackle, you can see how much the movement is diminished:

Over the last few weeks, we've been playing with the StreetGrip some more on a few different cars! While working on this Camaro, we've added an extra 1" drop to the 67-68 rear kits due to the rounded fender lips. With the 69's squared wheel arch, getting the lower look wasn't as difficult.

Here are some pictures of the RS we've been playing with. I'll post up some pictures of underside in a little bit to show what we've added!

Specs:

Front:
Tire size: 235/45-17
Ground to fender lip distance: 25 1/4"
Center cap of wheel to fender lip distance: 13 1/4"

Rear:
Tire size: 275/40-17
Ground to fender lip distance: 26 1/2"
Center cap of wheel to fender lip distance: 14 1/4"
