Re: 1972 gmc 2wd highlander with original paint
[QUOTE=kehstr;7379187] we decided that it would be easier to use the chevy axle (not making it true to gmc, because gmc 2 wheel drives always had leaf springs in the rear, and chevy 2 wheel drives always have coil springs in the rear) rather than trying to track down a gmc frame that had the leaf spring mounts. Not what i originally wanted, but most people wouldn't know the difference, so i'm not to worried about it.
My '71 2wd. GMC is coil rear susp. I've had both leaf and coil rear susp. GMC's
