A 6" rear drop is about max regardless of the method. Beyond that amount starts requiring more severe mods if one wants to maintain the best ride quality possible. Nice ride.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
Don't think I ever posted here, but this is my latest toy ride. 1981 GMC High Sierra. I am 3rd owner. Until I got it 3 years ago, it had never been outside my home town. I picked it up with about 65K on it. Redid the 6 to have a bit more go last year.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
Not sure if these posted before, where these special testing ground trucks with prototype engines? Eating up the drag strips, Hot Rod investigated.

Here’s an updated pic from a weekend truck show. A few big ticket things left to do and I’ll call it good for a while.
