i think I'm going to go with a porterbuilt front and rear setup. I have bags now, just trying to decide if I want to go with the bag or coilover setup. I like the way my truck sits now but I would like to see some pics of how low it will sit on the porterbuilt with coilover. anyone have any pics of a 60-66 with the coilovers?

Kind of mute point... if the coils are adjustable the the ride height would be adjustable.
Mine on PB bags ride height.

What are you trying to accomplish by going from bags to coilovers? Better handling?

I would enjoy the better handling, but mainly I guess less complication and less to worry about and more room under the truck for fuel tank exhaust etc. just tossing around ideas of what I want to do on the next build on the truck.

Check out the '66 build in my signature. It's the new coil over setup from QA1. Killer killer stuff. I had a bagged '72 with all PB bagged parts. They build great stuff. But coil over stuff is QA1's game imo
