The Army screw you. They would never. I was in the reserves 1016th for 11 years got out just in time. Still have to do 3 more if I want a retirement.

Freudian Slip: or parapraxis, is an error in speech, memory, or physical action that is interpreted as occurring due to the interference of some unconscious ('dynamically repressed') wish, conflict, or train of thought. The concept is thus part of classical psychoanalysis.

Here's a Triangle 4 link It's only $399.00



And a parrall 4 link for $499.00



This is there link

This is one of the reasons I choose to put the 73 frame on the back half of my 65. There's more options for air bagging.

[ruffrida2005]

Do you plan on using your trailing arms for your bags to sit on. Reason I ask is mostly everyone that bags a truck gets rid of the stock trailing arms because it will hit the frame. If they keep them, they either build a back half or Z the rear of the frame. You want your axle tubes to sit center in the notch so when you lower it it wont hit anything. What are you planning on running for link bars?

I was going to try to use my stock trailing arms but I guess not any more. I don't see how it would work without some big lowering blocks. The best thing would be to put the arms on the outside of the frame. I guess I'll be looking for some four link stuff. I saw SD has a kit but its $1100.

why do the notches seem to be backwards to one another

Because they are. I think it called art.

[ruffrida2005]

Jason yes and no, If you know what your doing you can make a very good weld. You have to preheat the pumpkin first between 300-600 and then weld. Most people dont know how and build a loop over it to attach the end links.

Dave one thing about our trucks is it's hard to 4 link because of how the bed mounts. If you dont care then you can put the links on top of the frame and then to the cent of the alxe. Remember that you have to have atleast 40* or your axle will move side to side. The best and maybe cheapest for you to do it go bag on 2x2 on outside of frame and a wishbone or watts link. If you wanna use round bar for the bags make sure that it's atleast 1.5" and .120 wall or it can bend. You should always have the lower bars adjustable. Just call up SD and let them help ya out. They make some really good links and it's good stuff.

I was thinking of making it easy. Seemed like a good deal they even threw in the bags. Sucks I missed the dead line. Still looking around. Sucks even more I'm taking next month off to go hunting so the money tree will be lacking buds. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=353118 I did get some pushrods today so all is not lost.

That SD kit looks really good. Not a bad price too.

[ruffrida2005]

If you talk to Jason personally and buy some other stuff from him,. He'll probably give you a discount. That's what he did when I bought my crossmember from him. One thing you need to tell him that you already have the notch. It's a good kit. I just dont have the money and I backhalfed my truck.

I just put all my junk on cl hopefully I'll be getting some $. I think you get 100 off if you don't need the notch. Tell me alittle about what you have for an engine.

[ruffrida2005]

Well my engine is a 77 4 bolt main 350 out of a sub. Stock crank, bored .30 with flat tops. Stock head that was worked with 2.02/1.60 valves and Z28 springs that will take up to .500 lift. Comp cam 468 lift, Stamped roller tips. AirGap intake, Holley 750, Edelbrock valve covers, edelbrock 110 GPH fuel pump

Sweet just looking for ideas for my next.

[daverod]

Come on money tree!!! Maybe if I talk nice to it it will throw a few buds my way. Put my pushrods in, valves adjusted and intake on. Have to to go the store and get some miracle grow. Ah. To all feds, it's not a real tree. Or is it. Two weeks to get some $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

[daverod]

Any ideas what headers would fit good? Drip edges came right off three wacks. Found some nice rust.

[scotts62]

I had some long tube headers for a 68 chevelle they worked out good but wont now because of airride...

[Strodder]

I bet all the trucks that are these years have rust there.

[watahyahknow]

cant remember anymore if you where the one running the dropmember front end (been reading a couple of projects that are happening on here ) but if you do you might want to talk to nathan he done a couple of those trucks and tried a lot of different headers he prolly can give you the ordernumbers for them too .
