Re: 1971 c10 stepside
Nice! I will say though I'd get a sway bar on the front end....it'll be the biggest improvement you can make to the handling of the truck. It's absolutely amazing the difference between a truck with and without one....and that's with springs...can't imagine how much more of an improvement it is with bags but from what others have said it's HUGE! A rear bar is nice, but the front bar is basically a must!

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
the truck had a front sway bar already he is going to try to make it work if not he is getting one from Air ride technologies. I just got home I was at his house. Wait for the picts he is going to post the truck is looking sick love the finish on his new wheels. stay tuned.

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
zup boyz , here the high light of the day , i only had a few weeks of storagefor my camaro, so i rushed home to get started on the truck as i need it to be a rolling chassis by tomorrow so i can bring my camaro back home this weekend only to find out that there was something wrong with the brakes , either the calipers were to small or brackets too big , so thats when my flip out switch kicked in , i gave justin at scottshotrods a call and try to explain my problem and ended uo shooting him some emails w pix, turns out willwod drop the ball and sent the wrong calipers , so now we have two trucks mine and alberts with one set each of wrong calipers , Justin immediately stop whatever he was doing went to wilwood and purchase 2 more pairs of calipers as wilwood will not ship the new ones until they receive ours , we all know how that works , he then shipped them overnite to me , i just want to say a big thanks to justin for stepping up to the plate and taking care of us , so for all you guys out there give justin at scotts hotrods a call next time u need something ,

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
rachet strapped, 2x4's at the mounts and a s@#! load of wrap. Its on there really steady bro. LOL
Wheels look sick. I am wishing I would have done a bigger tire and maybe a 22 in the rear.
