    I appreciate you video… Question, on my 76 thinking of the 2/4 drop. If I do spindles in the front (keeping the same springs & shocks), In the rear… after your video, considering the blocks but would I need shock relocates?

    Would air bags give a more comfortable ride vs a coil over?

    Drop spindles will cause brake line issues clearing on the front ball joint. Ask me how I know lol.

    Who would have thought buying a $7k+ suspension package was the best way to lower a truck?

    What about those that are running the 15x8 steel rally wheels on the 67-72 C10? Will 2.5" drop spindles work with these rims or will there be clearance issues with the steering knuckle? Do you need to stick with drop springs for this wheel choice?
