Re: Another NewBe Here.....

specs on the stance??.........LMAO!

well, im a newbe to the truck world and have always loved to 60-66 body. i just bought the truck late nov from an old guy near charlotte. looks like him and his brother did some "redneck engineering". appears that the front lower A arms were cut and a plate was welded about where the lower rubber bumpers should be. the rear looks like he used shorter springs and some crude spring perches were welded on to the rear control arms. it sits level and rides good. the body/paint and interior is in really good shape and the motor and trans are pretty clean as well. anybody ever seen this before?

Well however it was done I like the way it looks! It might be just a little scary to think what would happen if any of that stuff fell apart
