Ouch! That takes all the fun out of it, eh? No matter. That's going to be a sweet looking ride. I love the stance.

What springs did you use? I'm building a 68 and your truck sits nice,not to out of control on the lowered thing.

well this is what i used
I have 2 and 1/4 inch drop spindles on the front and 4 inch drop springs on the back
I really looked around and asked alot of people that have our years of trucks around where I lived causei wanted a good ride and not to much bounce.... http://www.mcgaughysclassic.com/Truckproducts.html Got them from this great little company in Fresno Ca. Perfect fit and no problems to put on... I also purchased my Disc Brakes threw them and had perfect fits on everything...

Man, must be a great feeling to know that it will be getting paint in a few days. I still have that hole in the of my stomach knowing that I'm a couple of years away from that point.
