Re: New burb owner in town...

Cool burb.
I saw your suspension thread.
You have alot of issues going on back there.
If you want to keep that ride height,... you will need to spend some money.

Call ECE (www.earlyclassic.com)
They know these trucks.
Buy a set of 6" drop springs, a set of rear shock relocators, a Super Track bar, and a set of their drop shocks.
The shock relocators will stand up the rear shocks so they will actually work.
The super track bar will re-center the rearend.
Right now the rearend of your truck is off center in the frame.

You have no suspension travel also.
I would add a bolt in c-notch.

Then add a 1.5" lowering block.
(no more than 1.5" unless you switch to bigger diameter wheels and add air bags)

Fix the rearend and it will ride good.
But you can't ***** about the ride if you don't fix it correctly.
Good luck.

My truck is at 5.5/7.5 static drop.
So the rear of your burb will be this low on 15" wheels.
Any lower will require a step notch in the rear frame rails.
