I just installed bell tech 3" spindles and 2" springs. Had to cut bout 1/8" off the bottom of the control arm, for my rallys to not rub. Well worth it, in my opinion.

Did the front swap today. It'll have to wait till tomorrow to get a bath. It also needs a grill and head light bezels...only reason I went ahead with the swap was I had a buyer lined up for my old parts. Posted via Mobile Device |

Finally got the back end down on the 85. Its a leaf flip, drop hangar, and drops spindles with I think a 1or2" spring. Its sitting on the shocks in the pic so it will come down some more. What kind of rear shocks do you guys run with a flip?

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
looks good....but if your rear end is sitting on the shocks an you get shorter ones like you said its gonna bring it down some an the rear might just be lower than the front.....

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
Yea its already lower by 1.5" to the fender. So I'm sure I will need more front drop, or to get stock front leaf spring hhangars.

First of all your Truck really looks great, I'm partial to your stock theme. On your question about shocks I had Duetsch brand on the rear of my truck with shock extenders but because I lowered the rear by a flip kit plus lowered rear springs the rear was lower than the front. The truck was almost level with just a hint of lower in the rear. Front was lowered 5in. So the Duetsch shocks were replaced with Gabriel air shocks so I can raise the rear a little for a rake. Good Luck with your truck. Bruce |

Here is my 81. I want to lower it and put a 5.3l vortec in it. It still has the original i6 250 with a little over 150k miles.
