Hey Nick - put new shocks/coils all around and lower control arms on the '71. Rides and drives great now! Front and rear are now both 5 inch drop but what I can't figure out is how the left side is a little lower front and back.
I bet it does. I just put new shocks on my stepside and it made world of difference.
Did you put it up in the air and look at the body bushings? Not sure what else it would be.
I just sold my Billet Wheels off my stepper so it's off the street until I decide on what I want to throw on there next....
Any luck finding a locking mech for the rear hatch or you just cruise with the top off all the time?
