Nice, it always feels like Christmas when those red and white boxes show up.

Re: ECE Drop and Disc Brake Kit

you like it, i brought the 3-4 drop,and disc brakes, just wish i got cross drill rotors. but i like the way my truck sets,thedrop spindles for a 69 chevy, so i didn't have to change any of the factory tie rods or drag link,they got rebuild kits for front end to. love the way they help you to.

Re: ECE Drop and Disc Brake Kit

I did a 2/4 drop, with the 6-lug discs and I love it. Now, I'm getting the bug to take it down one more inch......

Re: ECE Drop and Disc Brake Kit

The kit was here on Tuesday. I'm going to start tearing everything apart tomorrow and will take some picks. I still need to figure out what I am going to do for a booster, if I should buy the one from ECE or a stock one for a '71 or '72 and find all the brackets from a junk yard. Any suggestions?
