Question on lowering a C20 ¾ ton
I’m not up for it for a long time ,but I’m gathering info ,not sure on whether I should keep it stock height or lower it, I really like the dropped look with the big rims and low profile tires but all the trucks I have seen are all 5 or 6 lug rims C10 ½ ton trucks.
Are there dropped spindles available for ¾ ton 8 lug trucks, or are these the same as ½ ton Are these the same for air ride bagged trucks Are there complete kits for a 2” front and 4” rear drop for instance? Bagged or not I was looking for a wheel setup like 20” rims with 295 or 305 x 45 20” or 22” rims with 295 or 305 x 45 22” C-notch the frame is not an option because (I Think) our country does not approve these frame modifications, and I don’t want to be to low that I scratch the surface of the road. And how much will it cost approx to do this conversion bagged or not (rims not included ) Thank in advance for all your info

Yes, they make drop spindles for 3/4 tons. I think Early Classic Enterprises has them.

Sorry but I have no idea about the conversion. I do guess you're right about the C-Notch. Annual inspection will be tricky... Cya, Edmond

Yeah, check out ECE. Sometimes they have an angle on stuff you can get that's not in their catalog or on their website, and they'll help you track it down...they were a HUGE help when I rebuilt my front and back suspension on my '69 3/4 ton.
