Hello all.
I just can't say how happy I am with my new to me, El Camino, but as with any car, there is always something I want to address. This times it's the front stance. Now I'm thinking at this point it's more the front end sit's to low, versus the rear end sitting to high. But, the truck DOES have some brand of a "Coil Over" type rear shock (see pic). That being said, I'm not trying to build a Gasser, but I would like to raise the front end up to LEVEL the trucks stance. To me the easiest, and most cost effective way would be to install a simple Spring Spacer. Something like this.....
Before I order up a set, I'd like to hear from forum members who have ideas about raising front ends. I've used these in the past with perfectly acceptable results, but that was well over 35 years ago, and both technology and part availability can change. Any input before I pull the trigger would be greatly appreciated.
