Nice Rear!
Question:
My 71 with rear coils was originally lowered by putting blocks between the axle and the control arms. Longer U-bolts were used. Since I am in the process of a complete frame off restoration should I stick with this set up? What are the advantages to buying the shortened springs and shock relocation kit? Obviously it will "look" better and this is the way I am leaning, but I wanted to know if there was anything bad about the way it currently is. thanks!
