Re: 1970 gmc c2500 3/4 ton 3-6 inch lift 2WD 71 disk brakes

Yeah i looked hard only 2wd lift spindles i can find are 6 lug.Only thing i can think of is taller coil springs for the front or throw in a few coil spring spacers,They are rubber and look a fat x or the old school ones with the bolts but either will give the springs a stiffer ride.Other crazy idea have a spring shop custom make you a set of lift springs for it.
