Re: Got My Frame Back!!

Re: Got My Frame Back!!
A fresh clean frame makes all the difference the world.Looks good and the height looks fine to me.

Re: Got My Frame Back!!

Re: Got My Frame Back!!
the front leaf springs have more leafs also... my stock 71 had the hd front spring option, and has 3 leafs. if it had regular springs they would only be 2 leaf.
yours looks to be lifted |
