So back on topic, I would like to hear from anyone who has simply used 1994-2001 drop springs. If these are an option I don't see why there wouldn't be some feedback or pics, but I don't see any. I just bought some 1992 B250 Van lower control arms from Rock Auto so I'll start heading down that path for now.


Resurrected a pic of a buddies Bonneville truck. What he did the ole hit n miss on the front coil springs. I think he ended up cutting two coils on each side. Given the truck was a 3/4 ton the coils were HD. On the rear he used a drop shackle mounted on the center hole. He still retained the 3/4 ton rear in the stock configuration. As far as tech he passed but got a little scrutiny in that the class he ran didn’t allow for suspension mods as far as drop. He told the techs that the truck retained its proper suspension. Given the drop wasn’t in the salt(weeds) they let him slide. Had another team competing in his class filed a protest he probably would of been disqualified.
