Dope! I'm just starting my 73

You shouldn't have tightened the bolts on the shackles or the front of the leaf untill the truck is sitting on the ground. Push down on the bumper then tighten everything up. Everything is in a bit of a bind when you tighten them without the weight of the truck on them and at the angle they will be sitting at when on the ground. FYI

I’m pretty sure what he’s saying is you should’ve left everything loose until it was on the ground and then tightened it, not tighten it twice

That was some sweet hold your tongue in just the right position action lmao

How did u lower the front ?

So what is the part # for the lowering kit you used? And from where?

if you havnt found a way to lower it more, if you dont plan on hauling anything heavy consider taking a leaf out of the leaf spring pack. softer ride and lower

Do you have some sort of drop in the front to get it to sit that low?

I have Crown Vic front suspension, with worn out struts

Did the eBay hangers line up with the holes from the old hangers or did you drill new holes. I didn't see you knock out bolts. Thanks, thinking out doing this. I did the shackles and got about the same drop as you.

@@minnesotamotors Thanks for getting back to me. That frame is old school steel. It seems like drilling eight hole through that monster would be unforgettable. I don't want to do that.

What diameter bolts are those for the shackles and hangers

We are so spoiled down here in the states that don't have to salt the roads. I have an 87 F350 that drug home for parts that is so clean underneath that it looks like its one year old.

Id get yourself some Por15 and coat the rust on anything you plan on saving on that truck.

is that a 65 impala in the garage 🤔

Good luck with that. If they aren't trash, I wouldn't create a whole different a×× whoopin with getting those out and new in.
