Title: What kind of suspension is this?
Post by: apollotwo on January 20, 2006, 09:08:00 pm

I couldn't believe this when I saw it.  This guy road races his truck.  He gives info on the diesel mill but none on the suspension.  He's gotta have more than front and rear sway bars under there.  Any ideas?

Come on, you guys aren't concerned with only going in straight lines are you?

I'm not concerned with only going straight.  My '73 pickup will be setup to be as close to 50/50 weight distribution as possible.  I am still trying to decide on using the donor VETTE frame/suspension....

But I still don't know what was done to that truck.  It appears to be a modified stock setup.  Basically a drop kit and some good tires.  I know it made a big difference in mine when I got it working YEARS ago.
