I love the stock look of these trucks, both my grampa's bought new '67's, so that's how I remember them. But this small drop looks great, and would be a great upgrade if I had a 2wd. Thanks for the reference post!

I think the truck and the stance looks great. I have a 67 that I replaced the tired stock springs on and went with 1/2 drop springs. The new springs were actually shorter as advertised when compared to the stock ones but once installed the new springs had a higher ride height. I went back and used a cut off wheel to take half a coil off. If your truck does not have a front sway bar on it I would highly recommend putting one on as it greatly improved the handling.

Thanks! I'm thinking of dropping the back end a smidge so that it sits just an inch lower, as well. I do have a sway bar installed.
