Re: Better Shocks and Leaf Springs For my 1972 c20

I posted on your other thread in Blazer and Jimmy section.

What are your goals with the truck? Do you need to maintain the 3/4 ton truck capabilities? I know in the other thread you talked removing the overload.

If I was looking to improve the unloaded ride in a C20 and not concerned about maintaining GVWR, I would look for a 1/2 ton donor to get the lighter duty springs from. Front and rear.

Eaton Detroit Spring can make new springs for you and tailor them to your needs. You just need to have a firm idea about what your goals are. And how far you want to open up your wallet....
