Re: Shop truck build

Since things were gonna be in pieces it was time to lower things a bit...drop springs, shocks and shackles...all Belltech. I didn't go with drop spindles because I didn't think I needed them to level out the stance...welllll, that didn't exactly work out. Last year, I yanked the craptastic 4.3 disaster and dropped a 350 from a 75 donor in her. When I did, the front went down...way down and I thought I just needed to bring down the rear a bit. It's funny what new springs will do, even 2" inch drop springs. Long story short, the 2" inch drop only gave me a 1/2" drop, so I ordered the some Belltech drop spindles.

Ain't they just the cutest...they even sent me some Go Fast stickers - they gotta be good for at least 10 horses...I'll post pics before and after...here's the before...
