Re: Anybody keep the stock ride height?
Well my 68 was at stock height until I replaced the rear springs (the "ears" broke on the springs). I replaced the rear springs with new "stock" ones and now the rear bumper is 3-4 inches higher than before. It used to have just a slight rake to it before now it has quite a noticeable one.
So now I am going to have to likely get rear 2 inch drop springs to level it out. I don't know if that then qualifys as a "lowered" truck or stock but thats what needs to happen.
Now on out 70, the front sits pretty high, there is almost no up travel left in the front suspension, we repaced the original 6 banger with a V8. I think I am going to have to cut a coil out or get some lowering spings on front to get some suspension travel back. Once again I don't know if that will make it a lowered truck or not. I would guess not as I am just rying to get them both to sit closer to where the stock suspension is set up for.
My 3 cents.
