Re: 67 k10 lift kit

The rear springs are different... they are longer on 67-68. You can do a diy4x.com shackle flip kit and then use 4" regular springs. Just be sure to measure spring eye to spring eye to make sure they work.

The shackle flip will require you to remove the rear shackle but that's only 4 rivets. I would also plan on new bushings in the rear and maybe a zero-rate or add-a-leaf if oyu need an extra inch due to sagging springs.
