Holy crap. Man this build is sick. This is pretty much exactly the build I want to do to mine. I have a 79, its in pretty good shape, but its my daily driver and I'm doing a little at a time to it on a tight budget. Next thing I want to do is lower it. I assume it's all factory but I think the suspension is settled down and it sits about 30.5" from ground to bottom of the fender front and rear, on 275/60r15s. I'm trying to figure out how much i want to lower it but I'm afraid a flip kit with spindles and springs might be too much with the old factory leafs. Are yours the original leafs? Any measurements that you can give me? Components you used?
