Hi, just registered.
Taking delivery of my 1970 C-10 SWB Fleetside tomorrow.
Needs lot's of work.

My question is how do people like their suspensions. I read almost every thread in the susp section and noone comments on how these new susp's handle. I come from the Mustang crowd and fast bike crew so please let's hear opinions.

I don't think I want to bag my truck, but how does it handle vs. traditional susp upgrades?

I like the look of ECE's 4/6 drop, but how practical is it?

I want my truck to outhandle the average sport cars. Suggestions?

By the way this is my only 4 wheel vehicle and I live in CT in the mountains so it has to practical, but I will suffer slightly if it will outhandle a Vette.

Oh yeah, thanks for the great board!
