Love the Stance:metal: what are the specs on your drop including wheel and tire size

Sorry for the late reply but I am running 235 75 15's all around. I have 3 inch drop spindels and I cut a coil and a half in the front. In the rear I used a flip kit and 2 inch shackles

So my 76 project engine and trans bit the dust, first the transmission needed a rebuild then the engine ingested coolant, either heads or gaskets, this is the second time. This time needs an engine rebuild or transplant.
In my search I came across a 74 for a good price. It's still a project (What ones are not). Here it is, I will have to sell the 76 to recoup some. craigslist here it comes ;)

Thank you

It has the McGaughys 5"-7" with 2" lowering shackles in the rear.

Front - 3" lowering spindles and 2" lowering springs
Rear - Flip kit c notch with 2" lowering shackles

The lower control arms had to be grinded a bit to run the rally's with 3" lowering spindles to get the full turn radius back.

I also added 25mm spacers to push the wheels out closer to the fender.
