5 inch drop axle brackets 1973 - 1987 Chevrolet GMC truck
 

This is a set of lowering brackets for 1973 thru 1987 Chevrolet and GMC 1/2 ton truck, Suburban and full size Jimmy and Blazer. These brackets relocate the axle on top of the leaf springs, lowering the rear of your ride approx 5 inches. Quick, simple and inexpensive way to get down. New, $39.00 shipped for the pair. Thanks, Fred

How do these work and what else would I need for an 84 or 85 c10 swb?

Re: 5 inch drop axle brackets 1973 - 1987 Chevrolet GMC truck
 

You put these on top of the leaf spring with the open end up. You then sit the axle in the open saddle. You reuse the original u bolts and mounting plate. Pretty simple. Thanks, Fred.

Do you have to c-notch the frame? Or just take off the bump stops?

Re: 5 inch drop axle brackets 1973 - 1987 Chevrolet GMC truck
 

None of my guys have had to c notch. You may want to trim the bumps,, not remove. Thanks, Fred.

I want to use these on my 1976 2-wheel drive Blazer. Any issues I should know about? There is a floor brace that needs to be trimmed correct?

Re: 5 inch drop axle brackets 1973 - 1987 Chevrolet GMC truck
 

We have never done a blazer ourselves. I have sold a few sets to people that owned Blazers but never heard about trimming a floor brace. Thanks, Fred.
