Re: 1984 c10 barn find

Winter's nearly over so it's finally time to get the truck in the garage and pick up where I left off. So far the whole front end is out of the truck and is now going back together with new and good used parts. Southern control arms, new ball joints, springs, and good used drop spindles. I'm having issues right now with clearance on the bump stop, trying to figure out the best solution. Any thoughts?

This is one of the old upper control arms

I'm not very fond of cut springs myself, 1/2 or 1 coil isn't bad. The previous owner took 2 off, so I'm changing them

This is the clearance issue I was talking about, any advice?
