Anyone use stiffer shocks in front with a v8 swap, this thing bounces like crazy. When parked and you do the push on the bumper test it does'nt keep bouncing so I think my shocks are good just not stiff enough. Also anyone measured the stock ride hight on a 62 pickup ? Im at 65'' in front and 66'' in back measuring from floor to bottom of wheel well, that sound right ? Thanks.

Re: front shocks with v8 swap
I used these on mine. I have a 302 V8.
