Re: 1960 short stepside
how did you secure the rear springs inside the cups? and how about your rear shock mounts. been trying to figure out a way to do em like yours. hope to see the truck up and running again soon.

Re: 1960 short stepside
the spring is only bolted on the trailing arm the top is just centered to the frame . i ran front shocks from the stock position on the trailing arm. and put studs on the step notch. the spring is so short that it wont slide off . and the shocks keep it from coming off the frame.
