How low to go?
Hello everyone,
I have a 72 c10 short bed and wanted to know how much of a drop I can do front and back without a c-notch etc. I want it to feel a bit sportier and handle better than say a newer car. |

2.5/4 would be the best but will also require a rear shock relocator setup and adjustable panhard bar

You'll also want to add a later model 3/4 ton sway bar.You'll have to grind off the rivets holding the brackets to get them off the donor truck but everything can be bolted back on.You're probably not going to get "handle better than a newer car" but you will notice a difference.
