WOW!
I'm leaning more toward LMC and keeping original A frames but getting a drop spindle from them. I had been talked into looking into new tubular A frames from a friend.... but I'm thinking old school is better? I'm new to the C10 world as my truck was a grandfather/grandson project. Now that it's road worthy it's become MY project. My friend has a 68 and wants to do coil overs but I feel more comfortable using the more stock styled setup with a separate spring and shock. I have a lot more to look into I guess.....

Yes,... and look at places besides LMC.
Our suspension vendors here (like Pro Performance) can get you a better deal than crappy LMC.
(look at the review board area for LMC junk)

Awesome! Thx for the input. I'm looking at lowering mine for a good track setup
