Re: First bath

I came very close to painting mine the same color. Good looking rig!!

Looks like you need an adjustable panhard bar to get the rear end centered after lowering.

A number of years ago when I first got my 72 and it was cheaply lowered by heating the springs, I just stuck a jack under the panhard bar and tweaked it just enough to get the rear end centered........

You might be a redneck if.........!!!!

Re: First bath

Awesome truck! BTW, where do you live in Denton? I used to live at Kingswood Apartments several years ago.

I actually do have an adjustable panhard bar, I just haven't adjusted it yet, and don't really know how...

I live in a huge 120 year old house on Oak Street actually.
