    I’ve been trying to find any input comparing the two. I’m looking to upgrade the rear suspension. Does anyone have any comparison from Chevy 63” swap with shock relocation over hammer hangers and shock relocation? It’s all good news for both I see but cant really seem to find what the flexappeal difference really is. It seems the Chevy 63 is the way to go.

    What are you trying to accomplish? HH aren’t going to just give you more droop, you need a leaf pack to pair with them that allows the extension.

    I bought an entire 63 swap but then went with archive stuff instead. No particular reason other than I didn’t want to do all the fab work to make the 63’s work. Either one will net a lot of droop when setup properly.

    with that being said; wanna buy all my 63 swap parts? I’ll sell it all for a reasonable price...parts list is in the OP of my build thread.
