if i have access to funds id like to maybe do the spindle and spring thing.
thanks for reply
You can see my truck in this post http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=645023 scroll down to see how it sat after it was repaired. To answer your question, if you have a half ton truck then no, you can not flip the axle without a notch. As I mentioned, I added taller 3/4 leaf springs to gain enough clearance for the flip. You can also cut the front coils to get low, removing leafs in the back will work too but it will reduce your load carrying capability.
