Re: My 4" Drop Project on the 66 LWB

Wow. I would have guessed they were more like 5" or 6" drop springs (taking into concideration that the original springs probably had sagged a little over time). The back of your truck will probably settle a little lower than it is now. It makes me wonder about getting 6" drop springs for mine to replace the cut ones that are in there now.

What brand springs are those?
