Yeah Im pretty stoked Jason. I think you may be right about the sway bar. I just got the front passenger side done (still loosely fitted but resting on the axle). I tried pushing down on the bumper on both sides just to compare. I can push the passenger side down easily nearly 1-1/2". I can't move the driver's side at all. One thing I was really concerned about was the cab mounts. I've heard that on the '67 - '72s that the front cab mount needed to be cut with this kit. Im not sure what the shackle angle is supposed to be but it looks good to my expert trained eye. LOL! Ill try to get some pics on her tonight to prove it happened!
