i need some suspension advice!!!
 
hey everyone this is my first post I joined to see if any of you guys can help me out hear a little bit. I have a 81 2wd c10 reg cab longbox.
I am trying to make my truck a prerunner/trophy truck.now ive done a fair bit of research and found what im going to be doing is hard and lots of custom fab work or lots of cash spent.i don't have much cash but I have lots of time and access to metal tubing and plate and a decent shop but what I need is someone to help me out with the angels (that's not my best area) so if someone can find or make a to scale diagram/blueprint or something like that.
that would help me out a lot.

Welcome to the forum grippin_c10. This forum has a lot of guys knowledgeable in many areas but, I am going to say you might not find much help with that concept here. Getting a detailed drawing with correct dimensions is going to be hard to come by. Good luck with it.

the part I need most help with is the front end because I don't know where abouts they should be mounted.
