    Where to find this decal?

    Do it! My older brother wanted this truck and my older sister just wanted it to stay in the family. It means a lot to us. They could care less what I do to the truck just that this Fleetwood and bowtie remain no matter what. Have fun with a new 911! :party36:

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    Hey opinions count! That's why I asked what everyone is doing. That way in the future people may read this thread, or not, and will hopefully have an idea of what to stick with and what to avoid.

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    They makes sense I didn't even notice that pocket hanging down on the DJM set. Mine aren't beat up per say just the bushings are bad and I mean baaaaaad. So I'm opting to replace the whole CA. Since I'm taking my time on the rebuild and will be awhile before its back on the road might as well do...

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    Are you going to go with lowers as well? I think if I do both I'm going to go with DJM set. Advertised that the LCA drops everything 3" without having to use springs. Now CPP aren't too bad either might consider them instead. Advantage of their LCA is ground clearance, no more scrapping the...

    The video I watched he got his off eBay and I think they were Chinese parts. You get what you pay for. I'm a UAW member and I will buy American made products. Not "assembled only" in America. I may order my parts today just depends on how much of a dent into my wallet replacing the windshield in...

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    Ah I still have the factory ball joints. Also both control arm bushings are crap, all cracked and very worn out. What you'd expect from a 29 year old truck. I was planning on replacing both with new arms since they come with new bushings installed and ball joints. It's more expensive, by $20...

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    That's what I was looking at doing as well. Instead of cutting a coil. Also wih tubular upper control arms. From what I've gathered the longer tubular control arms help with the negative caster that tends to happen when lowering. But like everyone else I don't like the idea of all the weight out...

    Correction it won't. Mine came on when I cut mine but I forgot what the code was that popped up. Figured it was because of the pump but must've pulled something else while I was messing around with everything. My bad.

    dumping emissions on 1987 TBI

    Check.Engine.Light. When you cut the belt it will throw a code for the A.I.R. Pump not working. No biggie since you know it's cut. I hate lights being on my dash for no reason. So it's easy to pull the bulb out than flash the ECM. Welded? Wow. Yes save and buy a 350! Well reason I said go...

    Headers or plugs for the manifolds. Pull your bulb on the CEL or get the ECM reprogrammed. Ditch the 6cyl and drop in a v8. While you're at it ditch the tbi and go carb. It's what I'm doing on my '87.

    Where to find this decal?

    Well if I would've looked back at the original paperwork I had my answer and you were right retro.... It was a dealership thing.

    Where to find this decal?

    I'm looking for this fleetwood/bowtie decal or sticker. I am assuming too it's part of the style or class of the pickup like silverado etc... But my brother swears up and down that it was something the dealership did. Anyone have an idea or clue? Or can I have someone just make this into one so...

    2/3 Drop

    Should just be the Lca from what I've seen. Resolution is to grind of a 1/4 of it and should be clear.

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    Mines not a heavy half at least I do not believe it is. I came stock with the HD or JD5 brakes. Gpa I believe added the 3/4t leafs in the rear after he got their 5th wheel camper. So it's clear a notch is not needed for a flip kit. Looks like I'll go with 2.5 spindles and 2" coils up front with...

    2/3 Drop

    I'd say 245/60 in the front with a 275/60 in the back. I like the staggered look though.

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    One would think with a beefier motor the suspension would be beefed up too. I've looked over the 3" spindles and a lot of people state they're actually closer to 2.5 than 3. I did not think to switch over to tubular. Figured those worked better with air bag systems.

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    I was going to ask and you answered. If you were going to change anything when you rebuild it. That's where I plan to start... Spindles and maybe a coil. There's a thread in here where someone got a 1" coil and it was still too high. Instead of the 2.5 spindles might go after DJMs 3" drop spindles

    Looks good! That's what I am after except I have a long bed. I'll be to bare frame in a few weeks. Which is why I'm getting my thoughts in order on lowering parts now so I can install them as i put it all back together.

    what drop kit or combination of lowering parts are y'all using?

    Okay good to know. I think this trucks hauling junk in the bed days are over. Just want to be clear if I need to notch the frame with just a flip kit in the rear. Also I have 3/4t leafs in the rear I may plan on keeping. Might pull a trailer here and there too.
