67' updates

Ive been workin on the 67 a little latley. I did a rear shackle flip, and dropped the front hanger to get 4" of lift. Fabbed a crossmember to go between the hangers which have 1/4" plate welded to the backs. Dont have all the holes drilled in the pics though. Also got some 36" TSL's from tirepackage.

Wow, the truck looks great without paint. I would be thinking 10 clear coats.

Or even an emergency braking situation or on a hard corner . . . which makes me sad in pants. And even if the bolts don't sheer the area around the bolt hole on those hangers can start to fatigue and crack over time.

No, the stock bracket has 1/4" plate welded to the back which is then welded to the crossmember. Then another peice of 1/4" is welded onto the front of the back peice, which bolts to the frame...

Here is a pic of it from when I first mounted it... In the pic I still needed to drill the 2 extra holes in the frame.
