Re: Restomod 72 K10 "Good Memories"

Worked most of the week so not much time. Truck is ready for motor and trans removal. Forgot to take pics of front clip off. Will update when out. Pics of how it sits now in back. Have new springs being made. The ones on the truck served their purpose, for mock up. Pretty much expected, should be able to sell as they will fit any 99-15 Chevy truck. Took a chance as they are production Deaver springs. New springs will be 68" long and should provide 15"-16" total travel with 1.5"- 2" additional up travel. Truck will sit approximately 3.5"- 4" higher on new springs and 37' tires. Tire clearance is only 1" to shock. They are stock Ram HPO wheels with a 33" tire. My new wheels will increase clearance to 2.5". Bottom of shocks will still be close to wheels and mostly protected as planned.
