Hey Vinny, u got some good friends! your truck build is coming along.

as for the coils, i beleive i used a set of early 80's 1/2 ton lowered coils on my 64 c10 long ago. fit without issue. so for a C-20 3/4 you should be just fine. overall outside diameter of the springs did not change.

please post pics of 14b rearend installwhen ya can. i'm to use a late model 14b rearend in my 64 c20 soon. just need to get it regeared to 3.42 first.
