Re: Had to buy - '77 Suburban
With the hangers out of the way I slid he axle in place. Shown is the hole I drilled in each spring plate to clear the lower portion of the spring center bolt.
I was finally able to determine how much drop was achieved with this set up and in my case it was 4.25 inches. I have about 2.5 inches between the top of the axle and the bottom of the frame. Note this is without a gas tank but with the factory spare tire mounted in back. I'm happy with it at this point and will wait to see if it bottoms when driving before deciding whether or not a drop shackle makes sense for a little more low.
