Ok guys after driving the crew for a couple months i got tired of it dragging everywhere so i raised it up a couple inches. Thanks too Anthony(classic87) i purchased a set of used stock springs and this time i only cut 3/4 of a coil. While i was in there i put new lower ball joints and a sway bar with all new bushings. My opinion is that it needs to come back down an inch. It rides pretty stiff in the front now so i dont know if i should cut the rest of the 1 coil off or not. What do you think?

Also on inner fenders i was told that 73-79 i think have a higher arch in them for tire clearence and will still bolt up to these body styles. Does anyone know if this true or have heard of this?

Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!
 

Well i just happen to have both ill take a look at em and see if there is a difference

Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!
 

Cool thanks man

Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!
 

yea thats the problem im having dam inner fenders dont have to much clearence.

Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!
 

it thought about making some using trailer fenders but if the other ones have a higher arch ill go that route

Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!
 

it looks like the older ones do have more clearance

Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!
 

Thanks Brandon that is what i will be buyin then

Re: Buildin my 88 Crew Cab long bed AKA STRETCH!
