To lower an '86 C10 Silverado
Hi all, I'm new to this forum and have some thoughts I could use feedback from folks that have been down this road a time or two. I'm in the process of deciding how I want to lower my daily driver '86 Silverado. I can't afford to bag it so I'm thinking drop spindles, coils & shocks up front for a 5" drop. Then either shackles & hangers or flip kit & shocks for the rear. I haven't made up my mind about how much I want to drop the rear yet. I'm leaning towards the flip kit although doing that may require a "C" notch which I'm heisitant about, mainly because of my limited skills in such an undertaking. I want to make the truck low and still be a daily driver. On another note my truck has 15" rims, I've read where some folks had to grind their spindles in order to aleviate problems with the wheel and steering contact. So I'm thinking of trading the 15s for a set of 18s or 20s. I could use feedback/thoughts on tire/wheel size as well. Thanks for any advice or ideas you care to share.
