Re: 1951 GMC 3 window half ton

The shocks Scott's sent me have fewer adjustments than yours, but I believe I put them on the softest setting. Scott's told me the springs were 500 lb/inch, but according to the marks on them, Aldan identified them as 650. I wanted to use less preload on the spring collar, so Aldan recommended 750 lb springs. I installed these, and they worked out as planned. I enjoy the ride, steering, and stopping ability of this suspension, but alignment is difficult.
