Re: Help me lower my 71 C10
Almost a year later, and realized I had started this thread without a follow up.
I ended up going with a 3.5/5" drop on the truck. I was shopping around and found a front end rebuild kit for $150, or something close to that. Decided that, while I was redoing all of the ball joints and things up front, I might as well take the plunge and redo all of the suspension.
So, ended up getting a whole kit from Performance Online over Christmas/New Years. Drop spindles and 1" drop springs up front, 5" rear drop springs, rear shock relocation brackets, front end rebuild kit, new shocks front and back, and a track bar. About a month and half ago, I brought the truck up to my shop on a Saturday morning, and got to work with the help of a buddy. We started around 8:00am and finished up at 7:00pm. We almost knocked everything out. We still have to do the rear shock relocation and I need to put the new track bar in. It was too tight of a space to knock the old mounts out. So, we decided it would be easier to remove the bed and take care of that. Plus, shop owner was ready to lock up for the night.
