Re: Spindal Question

Show us a side pic, alot of these old trucks have sagging spring and wore out shocks. I put 1.5" drop springs on my truck and it only dropped 3/4".

Re: Spindal Question

If its the original drum brake spindle it would be the same as all original trucks I don't think you can get different height spindles for drums on these trucks.
but I may be wrong

Re: Spindal Question

My '66 had broken the last coil off in the spring pocket. I've seen a few others on here like that also.
