Re: trailing arm ubolts

My 68 has 3/4" u-bolts, this required me to drill a 7/8" hole in my blocks.

My advise would be to just slide under your truck and measure what you currently have and go from there

check out page 2 of my thread for more pictures and info
Simple coil Cut front drop Fun

I have removed my blocks and went with 5" drop springs. This was due to me wanting to keep my 15" wheels.


Keep on trucking!!!
