Leaf Spring Relocation
I've seen at least a couple of posts where members have relocated their leaf springs below the axle (front and back) for an approximate 4" drop. (I've searched but haven't located the posts). Would appreciate hearing back from someone who has done this to get their impressions on driving, riding and clearance. Thanks in advance.

Gritsngumbo has a '64, unless he's talking about a different truck. Those have a solid front axle, so the '66 I-beam drop kits won't work.

If it starts to rain, they'll tax the splash.
If you want to fish, they'll tax the bass.
If you plant a yard, they'll tax the grass.
If you don't play nice, they'll fine your *$#!
