dumb question
I have one jack and 2 jack stands... how do install lowering blocks on my coil spring 67 rear end?
Do I simply put the jack under the trailing arm, unbolt the axle, and lower the trailing arm enough to slip in the block (and bolt up with longer Ubolts)? Then go to the other side? Last edited by Mondo; 02-02-2008 at 03:02 PM. |

Re: dumb question

Re: dumb question
you might need new ubolts depending on the shape yours are in. actually its probably better to just cut off the old ones and put on new ones, its pretty cheap and saves a lot of aggravation. I did it... twice
