I am still like you used to be, on the fence, first about lowering, and then about how (springs or spindles on the front) and how much (to keep a decent ride and the ability to still use as a truck).

Re: lowered my 67 PICS ,,,
Looks good. You went lower than I thought you would. Maybe I'll lower mine now...

Re: lowered my 67 PICS ,,,
I like the look. The white bumper and matching guards look great on your truck!

Re: lowered my 67 PICS ,,,
I would suggest these for the rear shocks. 'No Limits' kit for the rear + they help the handling also by moving them further out on to the axle. My 71 rides great. I bought there shocks to when I ordered the kit.
Truck looks killer with the lower stance! http://www.nolimitparts.com/prodinfo...3GC%2DRR%2D100 Here are a few pictures of mine.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs. |

Re: lowered my 67 PICS ,,,
Wow! I never thought I'd see THAT truck lowered! Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I don't like, I just didn't think you'd ever get away from stock look since its been that way so long!

Re: lowered my 67 PICS ,,,
Man that looks great
Does it sit level? One side looks like it has a rake to it still and the other side look level. Maybe my monitor is crooked??? Anyway that is one gorgeous truck. |

Re: lowered my 67 PICS ,,,
It's beautiful. Keep filling in the details for us. I am thinking about doing the exact drop you did with springs and shocks. But I am looking at the kit from ECE that includes the shock relocation brackets and Adjustable panhard bar.
Been worried about the ride being to harsh or stiff. |

Re: lowered my 67 PICS ,,,
The only thing my kit did not have was the shock relocation brackets , I think the ride will be fine after I get a set of those brackets
