I didn't order straight from DJM. I ordered them thru Summit. They don't have them in their catalog but if you go online and type in DJM in the search window it will bring up all the DJM stuff.

re: Dropping the '69 tomorrow
Hey Randy,I've been very interested in your post because I want to do the I beams and Shackles and hangers on my 67.Has your truck settled any more and are you still happy with your truck?I would like more drop with the I beams than your pictures show,but then again I have a big block so that should help mine to be lower.Let me know if yours has settled anymore or if you cut your springs.Do you have any recent photos after driving it some? TIA,Calvin

Randy:
I was wondering if you could help me? I just purchased a springtech dropbeam/flip kit for my 70 F100. Did you have to put drop shocks in? If you did where did you get them? The only ones I found are from DJM. I have been asking around up here in Canada with no answer yet they all want to know lengths I need. But I don't know yet as I haven't installed kit yet. I want to have all the components I need before I start the installation. Nothing worse than dragging a job out for a week or 2. Hope you or someone reading this post will beable to help.
If it wasn't for this site I don't think my truck would have been on the road when it was. Thanx to everybody that uses the forums.
