Obviously I like the stance on your truck too (along with everything else about it).
You may not remember, but, this is the truck I was going to get when I contacted you in Albuquerque. My plans changed in California and it was early morning when I came back through so I didn't bother you. Anyway, I have it apart now and I may as well put in new springs. It looks like it sits a little low in the front. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=755797 |
Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!
Nice! Thanks for the link. I'm on board.
I re-arched the OEM springs on the K20. What a waste of time/money. The ride quality was substantially improved with new springs. I also replaced the plastic liners/anti-squeak spring pack pads with the new springs. One of the major truck vendors sells small asphalt pads for use between the bed to frame mounts. I used those at the time of the build. Maybe it quiets the ride a little bit. Maybe not. These didn't alter the body lines at least. |
Leaf Springs
' re - arching ' leaf springs is an old time scam ~ they ride higher again for a short while then poop out again, money wasted .
The teflon spring sheets really work wonders at making the rig ride smoother while still retaining the height and load capacity . Beware cheapo springs ! . Diamond or Eaton are both very good and there used to be plenty of other American spring manufactures . |
