Love the truck, aren't you going to have major scrub line issues with those lower shock mounts?

I believe he means if your tire ever went flat or got too low you'd hit that mount since it hangs down below the trailing arms.

Re: Body dropped 67 swb Service truck

I get what your saying now. Yea I had to modify the lower mounts after making them just for that reason. I ended up running them parallel to the arms ill get some updated pics up. Live and learn

Re: Body dropped 67 swb Service truck

Hope you don't get a blowout or that'll be digging in the ground.

Ever think of a pushrod suspension?
