Leveling the Ride After CV Front End Conversion 4/2019
Still collecting parts for the truck. The CV conversion keeping it stock should drop the front end around 6 " with a 351/C6 . I am sticking with leaf springs for now and will notch the frame . Thinking a axle flip and and a 2" drop on the leaf perches will get me right for the ride, but anyone who has gone this route can chime with what worked for them , it would be appreciated.
