Either way I have a sneaking hunch after talking to DeWayne a super pan hard bar is in the future. As we all know that lowering statically is not an exact science with trucks over 40 years old. The jury is out until DeWayne can get eyes on the adjustable he has installed now. WES
I spoke with Don at the Egyptian Body Shop and he knew exactly what Wes was talking about ... So I am sure this issue will be addressed and resolved.
