lowering a gmc
I was just wondering if I could get some info on lowering the rear of my truck.I know I can get different leaf springs but that looks pretty spendy.I want to lower it about 6 inches.what are my options? thanks

Re: lowering a gmc
What year of truck do you have?
With leafs I would start with a flip kit. You may also be able to get an inch or two out of shackles. Do a search, there are some good threads out there.

Re: lowering a gmc
looks like I may have gotten lucky.when I bought a blazer chassis for the front end lowering parts I thought that's all there was but after looking at flip kit pictures it looks like it has those too.awsome.

Re: lowering a gmc
What year is that Blazer? 69 - 72 2wd Blazers should not have leaf springs in the rear. It must have been converted from a 4wd. If that's the case it's very possible that it does have the flip kit.
