Today we had the hardest time we are putting the front suspension on 1965 c10. When we got to the springs we messed around with them for 5 hours and can not get them to seat in the lower notch without them popping out of the top notch. I don't know if i am doing something wrong when i try to turn them they come close to hitting crossmember on top. I am using Cpp 2 inch drop spindles and 1 inch drop springs. when they seat pretty good on top they are about 2 inches short of the bottom fitting into the notch. I am stuck for now any one have any suggestions?
