Sounds perfect, keep it at the stock center of gravity, and just upgrade the shocks, with added springs, will give it a go ! Thanks

Getting ready to completely install a new suspension system on my 83' 720 K.C. trying to keep as many original parts as possible. I will be towing and hauling a lot with the truck and trying to get some recommendations on good heavy duty suspension lift kits (if any?) that would work with the 720. Trying to get just about 4-6" more ground clearance. Would a spring over conversion for the rear make sense? Blocks up front with gas shocks? Regards,

It does make noise when not moving 50 % of the time. (clutch pedal in). I will try removing the belts and replacing the pulleys and start from there, will keep you updated, Thank you for the input ! ~(*!*)~

1983 720 z24, 5speed. 85,000 miles. I recently started getting this awful high pitch scraping/grinding sound from the engine, and can't figure it out. I can hear the noise everywhere in the engine compartment so its hard to pinpoint the origin. Thought it might be a bad pulley or tension-er? Thought it also could be a worn clutch but it makes the noise in idle, and goes away randomly through all speeds. When i let off the clutch @ high speeds it completely goes away. Also, seems to go away in 5th gear, but it does get a little louder with acceleration. any help would be greatly appreciated. I will try to post an audio clip of the sound.
