Re: To the guys with completed restorations

My 70 shortbed 4X4 rides like a 40 year old straight axle short wheel base leaf sprung vehicle. Definitely not a long distance comfort cruiser. My 66 is a 2wd and actually rides pretty well. Has a perfect cam lope and sound but keeps you busy shifting. The 70 suburban is also a 2wd and rides well. I hope that works out as my summer cruiser with this winter's addition of PS, PB, and a 200r4 OD. I'm sure that you can make these trucks handle with lowering, harder bushings, sway bars, etc.- I just ended up keeping stuff more like it was built never expecting them to ride or handle like my 08 Ram 4X4.
