1968 C20 50th Custom Camper, Positive changes
So happy that I've addressed the poor ride quality in my 68 C20 Custom Camper.
I've owned this truck for about 8 months now but the ride quality was horrible due to the lowering job on it. The front coil springs were heated up with a torch and 5 of the leaves were taken out of the rear leaf spring back. It would bang, clank, rattle, and shake as it went down the road.
I ended up replacing the front coil springs with the correct heavy duty ones. Replaced the leaf springs with the correct 10 leaf Custom Camper option. New shackles, hardware, and U-bolts. 4 new tires in LT265 /75 R16 Cooper Discoveries.
Leaf springs, shocks, and coil springs came from Eaton Detroit Spring. Took nearly 6 weeks to arrive as they are built to order and about a month behind.
