anyone w/ coilovers?
Just wondering if anyone is running any kind of coilover setup on their c10, if so how does it perform? I am looking for something that will allow my 71 lwb to handle like its on rails. My truck has trailing arms which i like, but some goober cut the original springs front and rear to lower it the stance is great but handles like @#$%. i would appreiciate any input or pics.

There is a lot of coilover info in this forum. Read some of the threads and you'll likely get answers to your questions. If you still have questions afterward, please let us know.

Re: anyone w/ coilovers?
I have front coilovers, really wont make it handle any better, just gives you alot more choice in spring rates and adjustable shock dampening. If you want it to handle like its on rails its gonna take alot of frame work.
