Re: leveling my c30
Depends on how you use your truck. If you need to haul heavy , then I would leave the leaf springs alone and shim the front. If more interested in a smoother ride then yank a leaf spring .
I wonder if there is a leaf spring shackle kit that lowers instead of raises? |

Re: leveling my c30
you could use drop shackles, that will give you about 2"

Re: leveling my c30
nose diving? that sounds like it needs shocks.
Is the front end low all the time or when braking? |

On a C30 dually, I'm not sure if they make lift spindles or coils for that truck.

Re: leveling my c30
Did you have any luck lifting the front of the truck with springs?
