Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
your burb is sick. i love that you are that low with a static drop:metal:. how much drop do you think you got out of the "hacked" springs alone?
|
Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
thanks Twitchin R&C. about 9" drop just with the springs, and im going to guess close to about a 12" drop total with what i got and have done. i can check the measurement from the ground to the wheel well arch in the morning. think i only have a total of 3 coils left in the rear.
|
Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
Ok so if i remember right, the stock rear ride height is 34" from ground to wheel arch and my measurement is 22.5", so thats a total of a 11.5" drop in the rear. and it can still go lower lol.
|
Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
sweet. thanks
|
Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
How did you hack the rear springs, they are tapered? Just curious how they are hangin on is all. I like it that low...now get the front to match!

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
your springs don't move while just sitting on your ta? I would be nervouse to drive around like that!
|
Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
i dont know im not sure, but they probably do move at least a little. this set has been cut for over a year, i just cut more off to go lower. the other set i had on their when i got it that i cut were cut for over a year as well. i have drove it on the freeway quite a bit with cut springs and was never nervous about it. i have only drove it around the block since its been this low in the back, so we will see how it rides, drives, and reacts to it being this low.
