67-70 coil spring different than 71-72?
I just swapped disc brakes to the front of my 68 using components from a 72 parts truck. I swapped everything but the coil springs. It may be in my head, but I think my truck sits lower now than it did before the swap. It used to sit fairly level, now it has a little rake to it. Is the lower a arm coil spring pocket deeper on a 71-72, or could I have forgot to install something with the spring? I am pretty sure the springs sit well in their pocket, and if they were not, the truck would sit higher in the front. Thanks in advance.

Thats all I could come up with too......does anyone know if a 67-70 has a different ride height than a 71-72? I need to know soon so that I can get it aligned. I am afraid to do it till I know for sure it is sitting at the correct ride height.

Should be the same.IIRC all the replacement and drop springs work from 63 ?-72.Maybe later...
