My recently acquired 70 c10 longbed. Got a bit of work left to do to make it a driver, but engine now runs and transmission seems to work but brakes are seized solid.

Thank you! Yes, that's the stock ride height and guaranteed no sag. It does not have any optional leaf springs or anything. the entire undercarriage is bone stock. Tires are 275r60-15 on all four corners.

New to the board. This is my 72 I bought on Sept 30th. Had to immediately rebuild the engine. Discovered broken valve springs, bent pushrod and smoked cam bearings when I went to see what cam was in it. I believe it is the original 350, but now it's a 383 with AFR 195 heads.

Light Duty only please, the aches and pain tend to show up after flexing to much muscles and other start to think it's the go to work truck with a cover.
