Newbe from Ga.
Hello all thank you for excepting me. I have a 1971 swb Sport Custom with very little modifications done to it, but i am ready to get started on it. I have purchased a lowering kit fro DJM , front Dream beams,rear shackles. Has anyone ever used them? I also have replaced the center section going from 2.78 open to 3.50 traction lock. the next task is removing the gas tank from inside the cab and putting it between the frame rails, i saw one of the guys use a 67-68 mustang tank. Or is it easier to drop in a fuel cell ? Any helpful hints would be great. After those ill start on beefing up the old 302 and c4, maybe 347 stroker and built c4. Thank you Jerry

from Oklahoma! You're in the right place, that's for sure. 
Have a look thru this thread, lots of great lowered trucks. Numerous guys here are running the same setup from DJM. Good stuff.
