amount of Z for 68 burb

alright. time has come. motor and trans are coming out for reseal and paint. might as well Z while its out. to my knowledge 3.5 inch Z will lay xmember(LCAs)even with frame rails. right?? how much is the norm? anyone know what problems i might come into? friend of mine said steering shaft hits drivers side upper control arm. im gonna do this once cause i hate disabling the truck. thanks for the help

hey bro if you need some help. let me know. too bad i don't have any info for you. late

also does anyone know of 67-72 or 73-87 tranny xmembers? it be sweet to find one ready made and not have to fab one.

I dont know about the 68, but i z'd my 84 2.5 and it lays frame i dont think there is much difference between these frames. On the tranny mount if you look in the new truckin they use a tranny mount from classicperform.com,looking into one myself.

my front disc brake kit is from them. im not sure if i want to do business with them again. in this instance id rather make one that buy from classic performance.

how about that Z

the z is pretty easy, if you check profiles under c-10 there are some pretty good pics. One profile that i remember seeing is ostncln, the black short bed from texas, his plates say cdime. He also has picts of his steering shaft, u-joints pretty much are a must.

what happend w/ classic performance that you won't do business w/ them again?

Section the crossmember.



Section it 2" and you will lay flat out, and the crossmember won't hit the ground. You also retain oil pan space. Just turn your welder up and weld it on both sides. Box it where you feel necessary.
