I found some 4" drop axles for the front, but that would still be too high.
Rear end could obviously be easily notched and bagged to sit on the ground. Is there an IRS system that would work for this and still be heavy duty enough to tow with?
The front end -- is there a front clip that easily mates up with the 1-ton frame? Or a bolt in option? | | | | | Joined: Aug 2006 Posts: 486 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Aug 2006 Posts: 486 | You might get more info at: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/There are more people on that site that are interested in belly draggers than here. Info for a 1-ton may still be hard to find.
