So I got this truck about 2 months ago literally out of a barn and have gone after the front end king pins bushings and brakes, So far I have it apart doing cleaning and painting along the way while waiting for parts to come and had an idea that I want to run by the veterans of this site (I am a newbe to old trucks)What I did while I have the front leaf packs out is took the first, Second and fourth leafs out to get the front down some.
I don't intend for it to be a daily driver but do intend to drive it to car shows and to work here and there, Whats your thoughts on pulling 3 leafs to get it down some, The truck is a 41 with those large wheel well front fenders and my intentions are to get it to look a bit street rod rat rod, Here are a few pics of it ...
