    Yup, tried it on my 64. It drove scarry as hell. Bumpsteer like a mofo! If you want it low and want to keep the straight axle, dropped axle and monoleafs are the only way to go.

    I wish there was a way to lower a 74 as neatly and cheaply.

    Great job. That's what hot rodding is all about!

    not on mine anyway. And also i used a 15 inch rim. Cut off the excess u-bolts so it doesn't drag and it still has a few inches with a flat on it.
     
  5. Bigredtodd just did the same to our '62 Uni LSR, good job I might add, maybe he will see this and chime in.

    I'll chime in. There's more than one way to skin a cat. I like it, and hope it drives as good as it looks.

    I was wondering if I could get more info on what you all did exactly on the column when you shortened it thanks
