'70, original 402, ps/on/ac. I put on CPP front 2 1/2" drop spindles disc brakes with tubular upper/lower arms. No change in front springs or shocks. Rear has coils only, put on CPP 3" drop coils. Plenty of room underneath, thinking of going to 4" or 5".

Re: Static Dropped 67-72 Post your pics!

Love the trucks posted here. It's weird how some look much lower then others, with the same 'drop' applied.

4.5/6.5 ECE.

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

I threw the box away before getting the info off of it, but I'm pretty sure it's 5.5. I had to run a 1/4" spacer because of the size tire I chose though.
