I have a '64 109 ex MOD SW w/tropical top. Rumored to have 1T frame.
The truck is mounted high on what appear to be long shackles, that have an extra set of bolt holes about 2-3" above the current bolts. I need to LOSE 1 1/2" in height to get it in my garage. Anyone know if I can simply move the bolts/springs up to the next set of holes without doing anything else? I don't want to change tires/wheels or anything major. 'Quick and dirty' is what I prefer:sly:. 'PB Blaster' is understood in advance. Assume small move like that shouldn't involve driveline or front end/wheel geometry changes? I have plenty of clearance...not an issue. Don't believe truck can possibly ride any harder than it does now. Shocks on this truck seem rendundant. It has airbags in back...2 1/2" above axle ???
Don't know history......:confused:
Thanks, Jeff
