Re: Finally Got The Drop I Wanted
looks good man, what drop did you end up going with, and where did you get the kit from?

Re: Finally Got The Drop I Wanted
I posted a thread (Lowering 1972 Stepside) and I bought the kit from Brothers, (shocks, springs and trac arm) with a 3 inch drop in the front and a 5 inch drop in the rear but I only got a 2.5 inch drop in the rear, so I installed a 2 inch lowering block and wound up with 28 inches and 28.5 at the front and rear wheel wells respectfully.

My Stepdad has a '68 427 4spd multi show winning Vette.
And the truck looks great!

Re: Finally Got The Drop I Wanted
Now that I got the drop I wanted, any ideas on headers and I want duals all the way back to the rear. I heard that Hedman Headers would be a good choice. And I will need an alternator bracket to mount to the headers.Thoughts?

Re: Finally Got The Drop I Wanted
You paid for a 5" drop and only got 2.5????? I would not have been happy about that but the truck looks great now.

Re: Finally Got The Drop I Wanted
Yes the ralleys are 15 inch and the guys at Brothers were not sure as to why I did not get the full drop at the rear but I am happy with the drop now, next its off to the aligment shop.
