Re: Well im back for good!!! With questions about lowering my truck
Actually, they are '67 Camaro SBC 4 spd springs. My uncle gave them to me to try out for the track. They did work as, the front end came up better. I also have Comp. Engineering Drag Shocks front and back. It also had H.D. suspension on it from the factory. So, it had 6 ply leaves on it too. I took four plies out and now, it has 2 on it with, the plies from the other four in the pack where it mounts on the rear if that makes sense. I also have Western Chassis 2/1/2" drop spindles on the front too.

Re: Well im back for good!!! With questions about lowering my truck
It looks like those big monster meats would rub if you did a flip in the rear. Can you get some pics like this to see how much clearance you have.
