81 LUV Supension conversion HELP

Post by Cbristow »

Hey guys, I've got an 81 Chevy LUV and I'm looking for the best and easiest way to upgrade the front suspension. It's a pro street truck/ drag truck. Looking for bigger brakes, tubular a-arms and the ability to run coil overs. Any ideas or tips to point me in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks guys!!

Cut the front frame off just in front of the cab. Install a premade front suspension clip. Make body mounts off of that new frame to hold the LUV fenders, grille and hood. I recommend something from SamCo Fabrication out of Reno.
