Lowering a one ton
Is there a kit out there, that can lower a c-35? I hear there are none, can it be done with out chopping. LMC says no to one tons?

Re: Lowering a one ton
6-8.5", rides great. I think the cut coils help

I think Sport Truck Direct may have a lowering kit.

Re: Lowering a one ton
Sport truck direct does have a 6/8.5 kit...but I have heard bad things about STD...I am nervous to pull the trigger. I have a thread buried over here where some other alternatives were mentioned....I am going the route Cochino went.

Re: Lowering a one ton
i don't usually do this but:
http://porthuron.craigslist.org/cto/2272432091.html Not mine. Note this is a dually. front half of the frame is not cleaned up, but rear half looks OK. So at least there is a drop for dually. Looking at this the rear is flip and relocated hangers. So your issue would be spindles. Isn't SRW the same as 3/4 ton?

Re: Lowering a one ton
yeah most likely. I just don't want anyone else to get screwed. but like i said i'm pretty sure they closed their doors.
I personaly called western and western told me it had been quite a few months since they sent anyhting to STD as they owed them ALOT of money.
