52s and a trac bar

[willymonster]

getting ready to change things around a little bit , i will be putting 8 inch 52s on the front of my 57 stepside to replace the 12 inch springs . ill have to get them in and see how stable they are but i was thinkin on the possability of a super duty trac bar setup . i had a 12 inch lift on my super duty and it had a trac bar , worked great . anybody done it?

Try running it without one first. I have a feeling with 8" springs, you probably don't need one.

What tires, gears, tranny etc. are you gonna run? What kind of use (abuse) will the truck usually see?

 

[willymonster]

tires are 40 inch boggers i still need to get my 456s and 60 front right now it has a 14 bolt and 44 . it has a nicely pumped 350 with a 350 tranny and 203 case . its mainly going to be my around town and ocasional commute truck . i want to keep it straight and not beat it up ALTHOUGH for beatings i have a willys pickup with rockwells 49s turbo 400 doubler setup etc. im also almost done with my newest addition of a 1947 powerwagon body on a chevy chassis with a 454 40 inch tsls 14 bolt and again one of those pesky 44s i have a turbo 350 and 203 in that one to but i also have a 4spd 205 that im thinking about tossing in there . oh ya dont forget the little 53 flatfender with fuel injected 350 aluminum heads high comp. waggy 44s coilovers etc my fiance says i have to many toys i say SREW HER !! I LOVE MY TRUCKS !!!!
