Lifting my 72'
My plans are putting a 6" superlift kit system on my 72' Chevy. This truck will just be a weekender playing. My questions are:
Is a Superlift System ok or do i need to reconsider? What drive train problems will i run into with 6"inches or how high can i go before i start having to change alot of the drive train? I would like to go higher but i don't know what all i will run into. Like 10"inches what would i have to do for it to be dependable or right? And what is cross over sterring and when is it needed? This truck has power steering |

Re: Lifting my 72'
Superlift is a good company.At 6" I needed to stretch the rear driveshaft 2" on my `72 K/20.The parking brake cables won`t reach.Some drop the hangers below the frame.I had longer ones made.The kit will come with drop mounts for the brake hoses,but I like longer hoses.Steering will need the 4"-6" steering arm.I went with the Tuff Country EZ-Rides and really liked them.
