Re: 7" Lower - Track Bar Relocation Needed?
I think he's referring to the track bar (a.k.a. Panhard bar), not trailing arms. I don't have an answer to his question about relocating its frame mounting point, but I can say that 7" of lowering might have pushed the axle farther to one side of the truck. To re-center the axle, simply use an adjustable track bar. I've had one on my 69 for 20+ years.
And, yes, the drive line angles need to be checked and probably adjusted with 7" drop.
