Picked up my 2wd Jimmy this weekend! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought this Jimmy off Ebay. I am sure a lot of you saw it. I am very pleased. It has factory tilt, A/C, PS, and PB. It needs a little work, but a very solid truck.
The first thing I have to do is get new springs. I don't know how the PO drove it like this. It has 2.5" drop spindles and horribly hacked up springs all the way around. I think I will go with 6" springs for the rear and 1" springs for the front. That should level it out nicely, and still keep it low with the 2.5" drop spindles on the front.
