    You should recognized Turner Enterprises from Street Trucks. He is a writer for them. He offers an actual "kit" for chopping crossmembers (not the way I did it, but the way most people do it) He also builds complete chassis' for the 67-72 I am sure, not so sure about the 73-87's, but the suspension pieces for the from he uses (from what I have read) 71-87 disc crossmembers.

    You should be up on this more Izzy.

    Gotcha.

    I think they are for taking up all the spacers in the adjustment side of them control arms. I know I have over and 1" of shims in mine....

    good luck getting them. Last I knew they were still in "developement". He told me back in November that they would call when they got the first set done in two weeks. They called me in March.... I built my own- just hacked up a set of DJM dropt arms.

    they have to be upper, making them lowers 1 inch longer would screww your alignment up not help it. plus just look at them they don't have spring pockets or even a plate to mount a bag

    I noticed that too, but wasn't sure. I may look into buying a pair---Probably lighter and look much better.
