Multi-stage porterbuild? suggestions?
if I wanted to go with a full porterbuilt setup and break it down into maybe 4+ stage (read: 4+ purchases to spread expense) what would you recommend?
Is it possible even? or do I kinda need to at least commit to the full rear or full front? Belle is a '61 shorty on a '68 frame. I have had two other bagged trucks. on this truck, the body is the lowest point (frame mounts have been lowered) so I want it to lay frame... and in turn body. Open to non-porterbuilt suggestions but man.. their stuff looks so clean. and I really want bolt on. I've done weld on, and it was fine, but there i something about the cleanliness of porterbuilt that just leaves me in awe. seems like high quality stuff. |

next question, '68 frame with '71+ burb front clip, power steering and power discs already.
if I just get the porterbuilt drop member upfront, do I need anything else? how bad is the camber at a ride height of...slammed? for the price dm sure seems worth it. |

Have you talked to Nate about your project?
I have recently started on my 66 and wanted to stay on a budget as well so I decided to get the front suspension done first and then work on the rear. I think you can buy as little or as much as you want from Nate in order to keep cost down |

no I haven't, good point I should give him a call.
Yeah I was kinda surprised the rear is so much more $$ than the front. the front seems more complicated to me lol |
