Lowering ???
I have a 72 swb and would like some pics of 2/4 lowering springs and shocks. Also how much of a ride difference is there with just springs? Thanks in advance.

Re: Lowering ???
Awful picture but only one I have with body on. IMO it is the perfect amount of drop. I opted for the full on kit (shock relocaters, pan hard, KYB shocks, springs) from ECE. Install was super easy, and I think ride height is perfect.
I have never driven the truck so no clue on "ride" 2/4 sits perfectly on 20s, again IMO.

Re: Lowering ???
Also, don't be surprised if you get 4" lowering springs and the back is only about 2" lower. The old springs may have a lot of sag in them vs new springs. if you look at how high the back is stock in the pics above, you can get an idea of how much sag you have now.
