early classics has a great kit, I just got a 4/6 kit. I think it's some of the best stuff I;ve seen

I dropped my 70 shortbed with the early classic 4/6 kit and disc brakes, and it rides great. Thse guys make killer parts, and all they do are the 60-72 trucks, so they know what there talking about. To drop that low, you have to fix the panhard bar and
shock angle, and their kit does all that.
Thay have pictures of our trucks on their webpage, I'd send you one but I don't have a digital camera yet.

Thanks again

Can I just add shorter springs and new shocks to lower my truck? I just want a slightly lower stance!
thanks!

I thinks so buddy.

here is mine, I have a 4/5 drop. I wanted to maintain the factory rake. Besides I wanted to be different, everyone is going for the "level" look.

What size tire/rim/backspace is that. I am going with the same drop on a Blazer.

I know this is a little off topic, but your info would be greatly appreciated. Does anybody know a company that sells show quality 6 lug rims? I was looking for something with a center cap too. Thanks in advance.
