lift kit
hi i have a 69 k10 and i want to put a lift kit on it. the previous owner has swapped out one of the rear leaf springs with a different one and the truck sits crooked so i will need to get new leaf springs all the way around. what lift kits are available in 4-6 inches.

Re: lift kit
I use Tuff Country front springs and a shackle flip in back. Check out www.offroaddesign.com for front and rear Tuff Country springs. You will also need an adjustable drag link if you still have the closed knuckle front axle. The dropped pitman arm won't work. You might have to change to a cv-joint for your front axle. I had to on my 69 K20. It has a Rockwell T221 transfer case.
