Which kit??
Hey guys,
I'm ready to order my suspension kit for my '69 chassis. I want a 4.5/6 kit with a 5 lug disc conversion. I have a '71 5 lug rearend to go in it already. I am keeping the rear drum set up for now. I have noticed that many of you recommend the E.C.E. kit. What about the CPP "Grand Slam" kit? I want the most complete brake conversion/drop kit. The cost goes up quickly when you start piecing a kit together. What kits and combos did y'all buy and why? Danny |

Re: Which kit??
Not to make more choices for you, but have you considered McGaughys as well? Let me know if we can help you out at all.

Re: Which kit??
I had to piece mine togather, they don't make a kit for the leaf spring trucks. I have mostly CPP parts on my truck and they are all excellent quality. Joseph

Re: Which kit??
Appreciate the input guys!
Justin - Went to the website. Only saw IFS setups. Ledd - Love the profile pic. My first c10 was a 72 SWB Stepper in Ochre with a white top. Always regretted selling it. Just had one too many trucks. Picked the WRONG one to let go. Travis - PM sent. Thanks, Danny |

Re: Which kit??
Ok. I'm leaning towards McGaughy. Anyone using a McGaughy suspension kit please give me some feedback! Likes, dislikes, installation issues?
Thanks, Danny |
