Re: 1972 Suburban 4X4 3/4 Ton K20 "The Beast"

I would suggest that you address the rear suspension before going on the road. The rear shackle flip hanger needs to move forward so the shackle is pointing down. The way it is now it will most likely invert and lock the spring against the frame not allowing any movement. Real bad ride and a recipe for disaster. Have to be careful when going to a compression type shackle. Proper placement is needed to avoid inversion. The spring cannot compress as you have it now. Probably why you think it sits high.
