Actually, the rear springs are far from stiff. 3 Leafs had been removed from the pack and that with the drop shackles, brought the rear down 5 inches. You cant see from the pics but they are bent into an s-shape vertically from racing the truck over the years on full slicks. The truck was suppossed to leave my garage 2 weeks ago, but the guy who is doing the frame work bought his son a car and it is in the trucks space until after the holiday so he can do the body work. I am accruing parts here and there for the transformation. I will keep you guys updated.
By the way, my 01' lowered silverado is for sale. I will post the info here this evening if I can get a few mins to write it up.
So it has coilovers and leaf springs? I know nothing about racing trucks so this is interesting to me, but I do know about racing muscle cars with leaf springs, and I can tell you, putting any stockish suspension car up against a Nova with leafsprings sucks. Stock rear suspension hooks and launches like a SOB on a small tire, the 250 shot probably helped him too. Keep us updated cause now you got my attention.
