Handicap Access (for my old dog)
So I finally made the decision to lower my truck. I finalized my plans and ordered the parts. I got dropped spindles (2 1/2") and rear shocks from LMC. I went through Summit for their 4" Progressive Rate rear springs, all of which turned out to be from McGaughy's, interestingly enough.
I was a little nervous about tearing into the thirty plus year old front end, but over all it was not in too bad of shape. The old spindles came loose easier than I had anticipated, and the whole job was completed in two pretty easy days. These are the before and after pics, the before shot is from last summer. The shadows kind of hide the reveal in the after photo. The measuring tape revealed just a shade over 2" up front almost 5 1/4 out back. I think its too level (almost nose high) now. Hmm
