Are any of you guys running a 5" drop in the front with longtubes? Clearance issues? What brand are you running?
what year truck do you have? i have Schoenfeld long tubes on my 96. it's bagged & no clearance issues.
My truck is an '06 crew cab silverado with 5.3 and 5/7" drop.
Only clearance issues you will have may be the Y-pipe. The headers tuck up above the frame rails so no worries. I ran a 4/7 drop with pacesetter LT's no problem
Nope no clearance issues... and went on fine...
No problems with ground clearance on the pacesetters for me. My truck is bagged and there about a inch above the bottom of the frame rail.
Any brand recommendations?
Pacesetters are what i run and a lot of guys run on here. But the Texas speed f-body headers tuck up a lot closer than the truck ones and are way easier to put on.
Pacesetters for sure...
I'm running Pacesetters... they're not that hard to put on, its just a certain way you have to put them through the frame.. When you do the drivers side I had to disconnect the Intermediate Shaft Steering Shaft, and when you do that make sure your steering wheel is tied down and cant turn.. I made the mistake of keeping it loose and breaking the airbag clockspring ($300 replaced), also put the y-pipe on before you put the headers on and then just connect them like that..
