Re: lowering a '70 c10

I agree that new springs would be the better way to go, but here goes on the budjet drop...... You can cut 1 full round off the bottom of the front springs& expect about a 2 1/2" drop. On the rear, you can use a 2" drop block(coil spring truck), & neither of these mods will cause any problems. You can run the stock shocks on both ends,but might add a set of relocator brackets on the fronts.....the rears wont be affected by the blocks. Best of luck, L
