    hello ya'll just sayin hi. i finally got a set of headers to fit my 454 in my 62 3/4 ton 4x4. i ordered a set of sanderson street rod headers. They did need a little notching on the frame. going to get my ehxaust hooked up tomarrow. get my flowmasters hooked up again. took 4 different sets of headers to find one set that both headers fit.

    lift for a 65 4x4

    sounds like you have a 4x4, did you put a lift on it. if so how did you do it. i have been loking all over for someone that makes lift springs for a 60's series 4x4
    any info would help!
    thanks:'(

    I didn't put a lift on my pick up. i have stock suspension. i believe i can clear 35's no problem. i have abuddy witrh a set of 35/15/16.5's that i and going to see if it will clear those for height. I'm probably going to run a 34x9x16 on my pick up. For a lift upi can shackle lift the front.the rear springs are 2.5" wide not sure but i think they area 56" long so if you can get some add a leafs orsring pack that meets those requirementsthern you are set. i'd like to get a couple more inches of lift but these old pick ups aren't going to be to tought to lift.

    My truck still has the same tires that were on it when i bought it, and they are 36"s, tthe only problem, i have noticed, is that when you turn hard right, the front drivers side tire, looks like it rubs on the steering knuckle.
