Lowering Blocks ?
Does anyone make lowering blocks for the 67-72 trucks. I have seen someone on the board make some before, just wanted to know my lowering options with some rear blocks involved. Thanks.

Re: Lowering Blocks ?
I've bought the solid aluminum ones from CPP & used them for 5+ years. I swapped them recently for some driveway made 2" sq tubing blocks.

Re: Lowering Blocks ?
Different height (went to a 2" block) & wanted a steel bock for the ability to modify it slightly for my application. I made them from stainless @ first but they were a lot harder to work on @ home so I re-did them in some mild steel .250" wall stuff.
