71 front crossmemer on 60 frame ??
I have a 60 frame with a 71 front crossmember installed with disk brakes, 3" drop springs and 2.5 drop spindles. In the rear I have 5" drop springs. I was test fitting the bed today and it has a HUGE rake, which I dislike very much.
Does swapping out the 71 crossmember lower the truck any without the use of lowering items? also with this setup my steering setup will not work correctly unless we raise the front about 3". I have all new POL spindles, correct year for x-member tie-rods and both 60 and 71up pitman arms. Am I doing something wrong? I know ive seen trucks on the forums here that have the same lowering #'s I do and look great.
