Looks like a pretty nice system, I haven't used it myself though. They need something like that for the C20.

You might contact BowTieMan, he posted this pic, not sure if it is his truck or someone else's.

That set-up in the pic looks like Classic Perf Products coil-over kit. Check their web-site for details.

FWIW, when I inquired about that set-up they said it was strictly for normal 'un-loaded' conditions. They didn't recommend hauling any heavy loads (trailers and/or a fully loaded bed).

I am also interested in the question above. How much of an improvement is this over lowering springs? I have 5" drop springs but I switch to coilovers if the improvement was dramatic.
