another new one
Well thought i'd make myself known being a new guy to the site and all. Thanks to a lot of you that have already answered many of my questions. But I am glad to finally find somewhere that others have a clue as to what it is I am talking about. Glad to be a part of it. I do have a question though. I have a 69 c10 custom with leaf springs in the rear. I bought the truck last year and have begun on the suspension. The further i get into it, well it's a mess. The previous owner torched the front springs, by the way after ordering all new parts is actually a 71 from the steering column down, and torched the rear leaf's also. Does anyone have any ideas or knowledge of where I could get or how to do a flip kit for the rear. I am wanting to level the truck out. I will be posting pics next week.

Howdy from normally soggy western Washington. Try the vendors on the home page. I always recommend Early Classic Enterprises or Classic Performance Parts because I've dealt with them. You can get more recommendations from the "Review Board" section.

I'm dealing with similar issues on my 1970. I'm sure there are kits out there.
