This is completely off subject (imagine that) but I was looking at your pics and just had to ask. How much drop front and rear and how did you do it?
I have a 77 that i am wanting to lower 2 1/2-3 in front and prob 4-5 in rear
Just wanted to compare what i think i want to what you did
I really dont think i want to be quite as low as you are although yours looks very nice

I believe it is 3-4 in the front and 6 in the rear. My dad did that project and I am unable to ask him exactly but if memery serves that is real close on the numbers. The rear has air bags. He could not get it low enough by messing with the springs. and it also has a ladder bar set-up on the rear and the diff is spooled together.

re. wings, are you talking about replacing them with a one piece. There was discussion on the subject but I don't know if they found a kit. Try the search.

For lowering try A.I.M. interprizes online. It gets to be a large project.
