Re: 69 C10 swb stepside project 45 ACP
Looks like I will be converting the stepside to the trailing arm suspension and ditching the leaf springs. Too much money involved in getting the ride height I want and to eliminate wheel hop with the leaf springs.
I have most of the parts I need on hand, just need the time & weather to get the job done and to pick up a new set of U-bolts to install the trailing arms.
Considering fabricating some main cap style upper brackets that will allow the use of standard grade-8 cap screw fasteners in place of the U-bolts.
