What year truck are you working on?
Stay away from AIM or ChassisTech.
Go with good products like Belltech, Western Chassis, or Early Classic Enterprises.

My recommendation is Early Classic Enterprises. Great guys and top notch products and customer service.

Based on your previous posts, I assume you are asking about a kit for a 78 C10.

lolife99 offers very good advice. To further that I would suggest looking at www.summitracing.com for a source. I have had excellent results with DJM, Western Chassis, and BellTech.

Don't be afraid of Summits white box "house brand" either. It is usually a well known brand in a plain white Summit box.

thanks for your advice, and yes it is a 78 c10. i already looked at summit, all i could find were drop spindles and drop springs for the front by djm. i could find any flip kits or c-notch kits.

Are you still going with ladder bars in the rear? Maybe that was for future reference.

I can tell you that Summit sells the DJM flip kit too.

i dont have the time or money to go through with the ladder bar or 4-link.

i talked to the guy at stylin' trucks and he got me a deal, 2 inch DJM drop spindles, DJM 2 1/2 inch drop springs, flip kit, c-notch kit from DJM and four ntro 2 shock or whatever there called from belltech.
