Re: Gertie, the 72 c10 Highlander
My next major project was to install a 4/6 static drop. After researching and reading the numerous posts here, it only made sense to go with ECE’s kit. I have to say, other than shortening my truck this was probably the thing I was looking the most forward to. It gives these trucks such an awesome stance. Ideally I want it to be as level as possible. I plan to run the same tire size on all four wheels.
So, I started by scraping and cleaning 42 years’ worth of dirt and grime off everything on the front end.
We then got it up on the lift and started taking the front end apart, accessing what needed to be replaced. After confirming that all the front steering components were pretty worn, if not original, I decided to replace everything with Moog.
