Just got a 68 panel and can't decide to leave it stock, drop it, or put it on a 4x4 frame. Livrat has a 4x4 suburban frame in my yard(very convienient) he wants to part with. I'll try to post pic's tonight

Congrats on buying the Panel Steve!! Welcome to the club..lol I would use the 4X4 frame myself, but I like 4X4s. Suburbans and Panels do not make practical 4X4s but they do look cool, but a dropped Panel looks sweet too!! This is why I own so many trucks..lol I like having it both ways!!! lol WES

Nice panels are hard to come buy, original 4x4s even more rare.

Post up some pics :D

Drop It. Panels are sooooo cool on the ground!

Here's my vote :)

put it in the sky with 52's and a raging bigblock
make gravedigger drool.......

Bag it baby :metal:

2 1/2 spindles and 4 in springs in the rear and drive that baby.

the panel trurks are hard too find and 1970 was the last year they where made

I am having the same conversation with myself.

My 69 Panel could go on a spare 72 suburban chassis with a bb 402/th400/posi 3.08 rear....or...I also have a spare 71-72 half ton 4x4 suburban chassis to use. I flip-flop on the answer every time I think about it.

post some pics first, but dropped just a BIT (not bagged!) would look sick i think

Bag it!
With bags you'll have the option of ride height, then lay it out at cruises/shows.

Thanks for the replys. I didn't get to take pics last night so i'll try tonight. Oh, it's a SBC with a 700R4.

Here are the pictures of the 68 panel posted for Steven

I put my 67 panel on a 69 suburban frame and loved it!:metal:

that panel looks very good. what did you pay for that if you dont mind me asking, still looking for one this clean.

A little more than I wanted to, but the exterior seems to be in good shape. A little rust in the floor. Runs and stops, so can't complain. Decided to put it on the 4x4 frame and maybe upgrade it to 3/4 ton

You read my mind Stephen, Saw a pic. of one the other day and liked it, more room them my Jimmy. Strictly for camping, you could live in it!
