Owner Comments:
My name is Mike Croftcheck of Ohio, and I
wanted to share some pictures of my 1978 Silverado. So far I and lowered
the truck in the front with 2.5 inch dropped springs and 2 inch dropped
spindles. The front has all new bushings, tie rod ends, and ball joints.
The back has a 4 inch shackle and hanger to drop it down, but I might take out a
leaf or two out to bring it down a little more without cutting into the frame.
The wheels are center line with 225-60's in front and 275-70's in back.
The paint is a two tone of crimson red and white to replace the original all
white. The body has all it's original steel and chrome. I just
finished the interior converting the burgundy to a all black and replaced some
worn dash pieces. I haven't worked on the engine which is a 350 with 350
trans. I cannot decide if I want to rebuild or replace with a crate motor.
Thanks for a great web sight.
