Leveling

Would like to level the truck. Coil springs in the front, leafs at the rear. If I wanted to lower the rear, what would it take? Or if I wanted to raise the front, what would that take?

Re: Leveling

What year truck are you working on?
ECE makes a drop shackle for rear of the leaf spring that will bring a 67-72 truck down 2 inches.
Is your truck stock height now?

Re: Leveling

It's a 72 3/4 ton. Yes, it sits stock right now. Thanx for the input. I'll check out the drop shackles.

Re: Leveling

I'm not sure if ECE's drop shackles will work with a 3/4 ton. That's why I asked.
The best bet would be to give Stan @ ECE a call.
They are great to deal with!
