i havent posted any pics of my 83 swb since i have had it, today i started the altitude change. I have shackle and hangers for the rear and will be adding spindles and maybe 1" drop springs or clip the stockers. All i got done today was the shackles, so heres my progress.

thanks, i do like as it sits now, i am going to keep the raked look. next i am going to do the spindles to get the nose down and get the rake back. if its to much of a rake, i thought about putting the hangers on and moving the shackle to the one inch hole. hoping for an overall, 3"/3"

well i started on the hangers today, i underestimated these hangers, it took me about two hours just to grind off the rivet heads on the drivers side. i dropped down the gas tank to gain access, so now i just have to finish with fitting the new drop hanger on and boltin everything back for the drivers side. Then i will tackle the pass. side.
