Who has long tube headers on their lowered square? How much are you lowered?


I'm looking to lower my truck 4/5. Right now I have right at 10 inches of clearance from the bottom of the headers to the ground, so I think I will be ok. My truck is not my daily driver, just a street rod toy.

Thanks guys :)

If you lower your truck 4/5 you will have 6in+- clearance.

Yeah, I think that should be ok. Especially, since it's not a daily. I hope that's enough clearance to go over speed bumps.

Speed bumps will be your worst enemy, avoid them like the plague.

Yeah, I was kinda thinking that. I will do my best to do that.

My truck is lowered 7 inces in the front and little over 6 inches in the rear, with full length headers.

Yeah, I'm lowered 4.5/5 now and the headers aren't hitting anything.
