Questions About No Limit Bolt in IFS For 62 C-10

Hi I am new to the sight and was wondering if anybody has any experience with the No Limit Bolt in IFS for a 62 C-10? Or if anybody has any information on how difficult it would be to swap the 62's frame for a 63-66 c-10's frame? It currently has torsion bars in the front and am looking to lower it more than just the 2 1/2 inches that drop spindles provide and at the same time improve the ride quality.

Welcome to the forums from Kansas City, KS.

There are a number of guys that can speak to the swap you are attempting.

Remember to post early and often...especially photos.

I am not sure but I believe Nate from www.porterbuiltstreetrods.com has a bolt in DropMember for your ride that will give down in the weeds stance with the addition of a power rack for better handling as well. He is here on the board as well.
