Here's what mine looked like just after I finished the front and rear suspension. This is at full drop (resting on the stops, so I can drive it in case there is a problem with the air bags).

Lose the stock trailing arms, they are WAY more of a pain in the butt to work with then they are worth! This is the frame clip I made to clear them, I ended up cutting the whole rear of the truck off....

and you have to also remember to shave or remake the crossmember for the driveshaft...

Cutting off the rear clip progressed to crewcabbing it...
http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h2...r/cabcut27.jpg
and here is where it sits now, back on the ground with the damn driveshaft crossmember holding it up again!:lol:

I used to run mine w/o a notch. Just don't expect a ton of drop. Atleast c notch it. Those are pretty simple and don't go all the way through the frame, but their also not as low. I bought a kit, but next time I would either talk w/ a shop and have them custom do kit to what I need, or piece something together.

My 68 is C notched to the top of the frame rail, not through...

Re: lets see some bagged c10s
 
it is a pain!!!!! heads up order a straight notch due to the torsion x member the 63-72 wont work and depending on the size tires u want to run u may have to step it up. for the front is straight forward with a suicide doors member or porterbuilt good luck with the adventure

Your truck is way cool man....the more I look at it the more I can't wait till the end.....

Although, I think the stock "nascar" style trailing arms work great...no axle wrap and all you need is a sweet Watts link and your good to go !!!:lol:
