Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
I used shock extenders and stock shocks on my 87, it rode like a dream

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
I just read this whole thing from start to finish, instead of working. Shhh! Sweet truck! I love the color.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
I will get a better pic of wheel position after today with some better light. But so far so good. I really really like the control arms. And I like how the coil seats and is held in place in the bottom. It has been a longtime that if I didn't jack the truck up a certain way the coils would kick out on me. This setup eliminates that tested that last night just for the hell of it. And my front shock angle is perfect with the new control arms also. More vertical now.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
Yep moved it forward. It is harder to see it in the pic. I have showed 3 other people and they said the same as you. But in person you can see it really good. It's not so drastic it that it makes you say what in the world did you do.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
PB sure has nice looking parts. I would like to have some to just hang on the shop wall as art.
