Which frontdrop shocks for a 5/7 static drop
Trying to order drop shocks for my static 5/7 drop.
Does anyone have a link to the correct belltech 5" drop shocks I will need on my 72? I measured aprox 12" from eye to eye on my current shocks. Thanks Fellas! |

How was the 5" front drop achieved? If you used 3" spindles, you need 2" shorter shocks max. Changing the spindle height (drop vs stock spindle) does not alter shock travel.

Scoti at one time I read a post of yours about the shocks you ran on your old orange truck, what were they? If I remember you we're running factory shocks from a different vehicle.

The rear was approx 8" drop w/the towing/HD leaf option utilizing 8-leaf spring pack. I installed a flip kit, drop shackles, & shock extenders. The extenders still did not allow enough travel so I utilized some shocks that were spec'd for the front on a 73-87 4x4 GM truck/burb/blazer. The upper bolt was a direct swap. the lower bolt required a different bushing combo because the bolt on the shock was smaller than the mount hole on the truck. |
