Re: 70 GMC in progress.
Heres a pic of the DJM flip kit I put in, They sent the U bolts about 1.5 inches too long, so I made up some lowering blocks out of some super hard plastic I had and got all the drop I could out of it. They should hold up but if not Ill keep ya posted.
I also removed the thick bottom overload spring on each side and that gave me another 5/8 of U bolt/Drop to play with as well as letting the springs relax a bit more,
I removed the bump stops in back and wrapped an inch thick strip of rubber around the rear end on each side for now ( not pictured) to keep the axle from banging on the frame, It sits just barely above the stops all the way around so the ride is not smooth for now.
I got a large step notch to put in the back asap, and Ill get some bags up front with a few more mods.
Have a good week.
