lowerin' front

Post by 63lokinup »

Hello guys, lookin' at lowerin' the front, now i think i got the part about removing some leaf's out of the leafsprings, i don't understand about turnin' them over, could anyone explain, i'm sure some one will, and is it the same on the rear springs? 1963 stepside.

To do reverse eye springs you have to take the main leafs in to be re arched, if you pull 3 leafs out you won't be able to do this because you will limit your suspension travel too much. You can have your axle dropped or buy a drop axle from CenPen with either spring modification though. Be sure to check your caster if you mess with it at all though, you might need more shim.
