Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I finished installing 4" CPP drop springs, shock relocator kit, adjustable track bar and 1.5" lowering blocks on the rear of my '71 GMC S./Stepside. It had 3" drop springs and some kinda old air shocks that with no air in 'em. I'd bought the CPP lowering stuff for my '72 Jimmy and never installed it. Truck has 255/60's on truck ralley's all the way around. I drove it a little after I finished and thought the ride was harsh. It started to rain & I put away. Hopefully after the new stuff works some it'll soften up some. It has 2.5" drop spindles and stock springs on the front. Next project is new front shocks and maybe 2" drop springs on the front.
