Slick 60's

just got done lowering the front of my 61 unibody i made a flip kit to put the axle over the springs lowered it between 6 and 7 inches gonna do the back tomorow worked nice and no weling on the axle just to make the brackets i will tr to get some pics up

Sounds like success!

Do you have enough clearance between the axle and the frame for suspension travel? It won't bottom out will it?

Get those pics up!

i still have almost 3 inches before it hits the bump stops worked out nice

We want pics! We want pics!

WTF???? haha

I dont understand how you could possibly still have 3 inches TO THE STOPS if you just dropped it 6..... What engine you got? 1.0L 3 cylinder???? hahaha

I dunno, maybe I Totally didnt notice the sag when I put in the 390....

I currently got about 6 inches to the FRAME, with NO suspension mods, if I took out 6 right now, that would leave 0 inches.

That’s why I’m looking forward to seeing them pics!

How bout oilpan clearance?

-Shiny

i dont know how to post pics but i finished it today after it settled down i have a little over a inch to the stops in the front im going to cut the stops down a little but its not to bad there is clearance for the oilpan but not too much the rear is on the stops so im gonna notch the frame a little bit i love the stance

See the post "Old dog - New tricks " in truck talk for picture posting instructions from SlickFan.

if you want to email me the pics ill post them for you...i would like to see pics also

Here you go. I pulled em off OSR.

hot dang that looks great. weve been waiting awhile for these pictures. sits just like my '64

looks like you need new front cab mounts...

interesting doors.my uni has a pair of doors that match your drivers side.

Yep shame that some one put on the wrong door and then painted it...Passenger side is correct....

Use some poly button stops mounted to the side on a bracket as the cut down rubber stockers will allow too much of a hit and crack the frame in that area. Its a weak spot.

Place some good shocks on her as she will want to wallow a bit with the flip and the neat camber changes as the flipped axle pivots with flex of the leafs..

Garbz

Git 'er down

Nice look-do you have pictures of the front axle flip?

hey yea it sucks that somebody put the wrong door on the drivers side and the cab mounts are good but whoever had it before me braced the core support and now its too high in the front so i have to cut it out and redo it but its getting there i have to many projects so i hae to split my time up between them all

thanks for the nice coments i will take some pics of under the truck i just dont know how to post them here i know someone offered t post them for me so once i get them i will send them to you

thanks
