Re: 1972 C20 front suspension removal?

Yes Scotti brings a good point, if you plan on removing the springs, doing so while it is still on the truck is much safer. C20 springs are much more stout that C10 springs and standard spring comperssors may be over loaded and launch your entire X member across your garage floor taking part of your leg with it. If you are going to completely replace it and are going to scrap the entirety then the whole thing come out quite nicely.

Here is my Drop spindle/ drop spring C20 front ready to go back in.
