I saw the C50 for sale too, and thought about doing the same thing, well dreamed about it, since I don't have the money. I would love to see the progress on it, let us know when you start a thread.

if you shorten the Frame , youŽll need a new (short one) Driveshaft , are you going to the same Shop that kills your Batterys while playing with your Airride?!
(just kidding)

i have a pic in my mind about the C50 and i think it will looks great when it is done!

Re: A Suburban Joins The Herd

that c50 is awesome!

c-notch and bag this baby, how sweet would it be to go pick up your next truck with this thing? Just drop it to the ground and drive the new truck up a small ramp. Awesome!
