Re: My 4/6" ECE lowering install thread - 72 Shorty
Whoa, whoa buddy, ease up on all the green pics!! St Patty's Day isn't until Thursday!
JK, I've always loved this truck even before the drop, you take great photos. DibDob - Sorry to hear about the mix up, that sucks having to sit and wait even longer. It will be worth the wait (eventually). |

Here's one I built a few years ago. Sadly sold to build another. But sold to a great guy. Still see her around here. Still pals with the "new" owner. ECE all the way.

I'm pretty sure they're stock rallys, so 15x8 I believe.

Re: My 4/6" ECE lowering install thread - 72 Shorty
I've never heard of felt the rear axle touching the frame on mine. I even have it 1/4 lower in the rear now with a spacer, so the rear is 6" lower with the rear springs, plus 1/4" more with the spacer. 300 miles on it since then with no issue. No c notch.

Beautiful truck. I'm getting ready to freshen up my 72 with some new springs and shocks. Truck is on what I believe is a 4/6 drop done by the PO. I thinking of going with the ECE springs. what was your final set up front and rear? Thanks, Robert. Last edited by rhc10; 12-06-2018 at 08:03 PM. |
