WTB Lowering parts

I am looking for some lowering parts for my 72 longbed c-10. Just thought I would ask if anyone had any used laying around before I have to buy new. I am looking for 2.5 drop spindles, 5" rear springs, 2" rear blocks. Let me know if anyone has anything to part with. Thanks

Just checking what front springs are you want if any. I have some 2" drop new and used sets, a new stock height set and some 1" drop also.

Re: WTB Lowering parts

I was kinda set on drop spindles, and 4" or 5" rear springs. Thanks for the offer I don't think 2" fronts will be enough.

I was thinking you would need spindles and springs. With springs and a block in the rear you're looking at a 6 or 7" total drop in the rear. You'll need a front 1 or 2" spring in addition to the spindle to keep the front level with the rear or a slight rake with a 3" spring with the spindle

Re: WTB Lowering parts

Are you still looking for a set of drop spindles ? I have a set that are brand new but won't fit the ball joints on my 87 square.
