71 burb rear drop springs
What truck spring do you go with to get a 6 inch drop in the rear? My guess would be a 3 truck spring do to the additional weight.

Re: 71 burb rear drop springs
My old burb had 6" truck springs,... but I would suggest a c-notch.

Re: 71 burb rear drop springs
Uh oh. I just got a deal on a pair of 3 inch rear springs. I guess I will just try them and see.

Do the springs and add blocks.

Re: 71 burb rear drop springs
Exactly. Helps w/shock travel & gets the additional drop.
