Thanks,

Looks like your front axle should be 8 1/8" off the ground. I would check my truck for you but it's in hibernation right now. http://chevy.tocmp.com/chevyresto/53060.htm Curt

With the broken spring and no motor or front sheetmetal the axle is sitting close to that. Haven't checked the spindles yet but pretty much everything else is either bent, broken or worn out. Looking at a few suspension options: stock, monoleafs, mustang II. In no rush to decide but I want to start collecting parts, seems less painful than buying everything at once.
