drop square bodies with leaf springs pics! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

1981 C10 with axle flip and 4.5 inch drop in the front. I didn't do a C notch, but occasionally I wish I had, like when there's a pothole I did't see.

The flip kit is a Bell Tech model, and although everyone will tell you to use shock relocators - and I agree it would be best - I didn't have an extra hundred bucks to spend at that point in the project and so I just used the drop shocks that Bell Tech recommends with their kit and they work great. Front springs and spindles are from ECE, I am really going to miss that company since they closed their doors this year.

Pics are before and after
