I lowered the rear about 6inchs - and want to the rear shock relocater kit and also the new relocater for the track bar and have some questions for you guys:

- is it a difficult install?
- where did you purchase yours
- do you have any pics of the install?

Thanks!

ece very easy install. get the super trac bar. the hardest part is busting the rivits for the upper shock mounts

Definitely need both with a 6" drop. The track bar I bought from CCP had one beef! The end under the axle had the thru bolt hole so close to the bracket, I couldn't get a box wrench or socket on the bolt head or the nut. I called the to "complain", but I think they ignored me. Just make sure there is wrench clearance on the lower end.

I got both from Early Classic Enterprises. Very nice stuff. The upper shock mounts are a pain to get the rivets out of, and depending on rust the axle u-bolts can be a challenge. One of mine came right off and the other required a torch. I did it in a Saturday afternoon on jack stands. Would have been way faster with access to a lift.
