half done drop!
Steve Cole and I went after it on the truck this afternoon and got the CPP coils and shocks I bought off of Bhelton on.
Took about 4 hrs to do both sides. We could easily do it in half of that now I think. New parts on an old truck look cool! (I resisted the temptation to start cleaning and painting down there- that'd be a huge can of worms).  Here's before/ stock height:  And after with a 3" drop up front:  I've got the parts ordered for the rear. Should be able to install them after the Goodguys show in Charlotte this coming weekend.

Re: half done drop!
Start spraying the rear suspension bolts with PB Blaster or Kroil now.You should be prepared to replace those bolts also.They have a tendency to twist off.

Everything else has come apart easy enough on this truck- hopefully the hind end will be the same.
