    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.

    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?

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