Re: `71 leaf lowering.... HELP!

A true 67-72 kit would be the easist 'no modification' approach. A 73-87 kit would prob work w/some slight grinding on the 'U'/flip saddles so they fit within the OE leaf mounts (IIRC, the 71-72 leafs were 2.25" w, the 73-87's are 2.5" w).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
