Newbie From Across the pond

Hi guys hit the old buy it now button on a 63 c10 long bed last night

iam coming over for sema in a few weeks and wanted to sort a few bits out for it and wanted some advice,

i have built a couple of lowriders in the past on hydros and also done a couple of kustoms on air so dont mind getting dirty,

I cant be bothered changing the front clip on the c10 or brakes so was wondering

what air kits whould you guys recommend
shall i make a c notch or are there some good kits out there and also should i 4 bar it i guess there leaf as standard

many thanks Col

Welcome to the forum

As long as the truck is a Chevy it should have the trailing arms with coils. So no need to change to a 4 bar.
