Had some big problems with lowering the truck!!
Well...Our Susp. and Steering Class was at the college tonight in Midland. We were lowering my truck for a lab. 3/5 Drop..Flip Kit and spring. Well...The front end went fine. The back was totally different story. First we messed up and had to take it all apart to get hte pinion set. Then....We hadd the take the drive shaft off the set that. ok...Then The drivshaft woudlnt FIT!!! So we took it out and buff it up a lil and it still would fit. Since I got a turbo 400..I cant take off the extension out the tranny easy. So....after that. My shocks were bottomed out bad. The guy at talked to about the Kit said I didnt need shocks or a lowering kit of my old ones. ok.....And my lower Ball joints and SHOT too. So.....Tonight....We lowered the truck but to only find that....
1. I have to get hte driveshaft cut and Inch and a Quarter 2. I need new shocks for the kit 3. I need new ball Joints 4. I need a J.O.B.!!!! Oh yea..I lost my walet today TOO!!! This just aint my day. I have now come to relize that nothig is ever as it seems. Its not just a lowering kit...its everything within 5 inchs of it lol. But yea....It looks sick. I crapped my pants when i saw it. Looks dam good. But....all need all that by friday lol. Time for some serious overnight shipping lol. Yall will see me ridin soon enough So please pray that nothing else goes wrong I kno i have lol. Yall take it easy!!! Tyler P.S. Josh our site Creater (Oh yessiams) Was there in the fight to make it work. He can vouch to how hard it was haha. Spent 45 mins alone on gettin the ball joints off HAHA! :P *EDIT*....Yall kno a link to where i can find some Lower Ball Joint for my 78' Silverado Short Bed? If u do I loved to have them THX ALOT!!!
