1 and 2 inch lift kits. HELP please!

I was just wondering if 1 inch lift kits were available for 67-72 c10s. If so, does anybody know where I can find any? And does anyone have pictures of their trucks with 1 or 2 inch lifts on them? Thanks

Easiest way to lift a 2wd C10 is to switch to the 3/4 ton springs. Adds about 2 inches of lift.

Also, welcome to the site.

Won't that make handling harder or make the overall ride rougher?

I'm guessing it will make the ride a little rougher, but the 3/4 tons rode rougher anyhow.

I don't really want to change how nice the ride is on these trucks but I may have too. Do you have any pictures of trucks with 3/4 ton springs in it?
