Lowered my burb
I lowered my 71 C10 burb at work the other day. We were slow so I took advantage of all the parts I got from fellow board members(va72c10,teeitup,elwoods76 and thelonerife. Thanks fellas!!) 3inch drop springs and new ball joints for the front, 4 inch rear drop springs and kyb shocks. I will tell you this the right rear coil spring was a pain to get out and in thanks to the fuel lines ran on that side but with the help of a coworker we got it. Once I got it off the rack and on to the aligner the drop worked wonders for my caster. It got in creased to 4.1 and 3.9 which is alot better than 1 and I only had to shim one side for camber. I also took the oppurtunity to put my rally wheels on with my "custom" homemade center caps now I just need some beauty rings. Enough with the blah blah heres some pics.
