5/7 drop with 18 inch rims

Hi all, im new to the forum here. I was wondering who all has done a 5/7 drop with 18s on their c/10?? Im probably going to run this setup and had a few questions.

1. What brand of c-notch are you guys running?

2. Is there an aftermarket trailing arm crossmember i can use and still keep my stock trailing arms?

Any pics tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated!!

In my opinion,... Porterbuilt Fabrication makes the best mild notch for 67-72 trucks.
They also sell a trailing arm crossmember that will work with stock trailing arms.

Look here:

Yea i talked to Nathan about a month ago and almost pulled the trigger on the mild setup in the rear. In my mind, i cant justify spending that much cash for what im trying to do with the truck. Dont get me wrong PorterBuilt stuff is SUPER NICE, i just believe It would be just as nice with what i invision!
