Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
 

wow shortbed too .
the sheetmetal looks good on the pictures , just from the looks of the greasy fingers on the fenders they did some work on the engine , wat type engine is it , a 454 ?

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
 

I wish except for the paying for gas part, it's a 350/350 set-up with a edelbrock intake, HEI, and true dual exhaust. P/O was a master of Disney technology so I've had to fix some of his Mickey Mouse repairs. sheet metal is in good shape exception of cab corners and a few dings all very repairable.

I posted my truck in here before, but I just got finished with the drop, so here it is again. 4/6 drop from western chassis. 2.5" spindles, 1.5" springs, 4" drop leafs, and 2" shackles. also installed belltech street performance shocks on all four corners. I like it, but I'm thinking about raising the rear up an inch. the shackles have two settings, 1" drop and 2" drop. What do you think?

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
 

I'd say drop the rear another inch. Loose the rake!

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
 

Lower, lower Go down another 1"-2". Thats just my $.02.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
 

That looks great! Did you do the job at the base?
When are we going to meet?

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
 

I sure wouldn't raise it. I think they look best with just a slight rake; where the distance from the top of the wheel to the fender lip is the same front and rear.
