Coilover front suspension - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Has anyone done coilover front suspension on the 60-87 trucks? Modifying the stock crossmember? Wouldn't necessarily use the stock A-arms, but maybe some aftermarket CPP ones or something. Just throwing around ideas. Pics would be cool

That top one is sweet!!! That looks like an ultimate setup. Though the version done ine the link you posted looks a little more along my line of thinking. I can have the truck down for 2 days and get it all cut and welded in. Does anyone have any input on that scott's hotrods setup? Because that looks really nice and looks like some thought out geometry.
