Re: Pleaseeeeeee Help Me Out

i am guessing by your screen name that you are putting these on a 67. by that guess the next question is whether or not you have trailling arms or leaf springs. if you have trailing arms you can just replace the springs with the bags. add a super track bar from ece or cpp, 2" blocks and a c-notch and you will be at the max you can be without cutting the bed.

I believe that all 67 came with rear coils and they became optional leafs in 1971 or 72.
