WTB: 6" rear drop coils
I'm looking to buy a set of 6" rear drop coils for my 68 Chevy truck. If someone has a set they would like to sell or trade for 4" rear coils LMK. Or who has the best price for a set?

Re: WTB: 6" rear drop coils
Gabe, I don't know that they make a 6" drop spring. THe biggest I have seen is 5", You could always just add 2" lowering blocks to get down where you want to be, and would save you some work too boot.

Re: WTB: 6" rear drop coils
wouldn't 6" of drop all in the springs nearly eliminate your suspension travel and ride quality? wouldn't one be better off with 4"drop springs and 2"blocks?

Re: WTB: 6" rear drop coils
Could some one tell me if this would be true? If I put 2" lowering blocks with the 4" coils would I need to relocate the shocks and add a panbar?

Re: WTB: 6" rear drop coils
yes you should, it will ride alot better. The panhard bar is also needed when dropping the rear that much. I dropped mine 5" in the rear with 3" springs and 2" blocks to retain as much travel as I could. I had to use the panhard bar to center up the rear end, and the relocators really set the shocks back into their stock position for maximum effectiveness
