Santa says, "Get down". Lowering brackets end of year sale.

THEY ARE ALL SOLD.... THANKS.... We have about 10 sets of these left and would like to move them all by the end of the year,, plus maybe help out others here since we have had such good dealings with everyone. Last 10 sets for the year,,, $35.00 each pair, shipped,,, YES,, Shipped..This is a set of lowering brackets for 1973 thru 1987 Chevrolet and GMC 1/2 ton truck, Suburban and full size Jimmy and Blazer. These brackets relocate the axle on top of the leaf springs, lowering the rear of your ride approx 5 inches. Quick, simple and inexpensive way to get down. New, $35.00 shipped for the pair. Thanks, Fred

Re: Santa says, "Get down". Lowering brackets end of year sale.

Hi. I am very interested in a set of these, but have a couple of questions. I've got a stock '80 C10 swb and I'm ready to lower it. Is this all I need to lower the rear? I've not done this before, so I want to make sure I know what I'm getting into. Do you have any type of instruction walk thru for this process? Thanks for your help.

Vince

Hey Vince. Thanks for the interest in our brackets. These are really simple. The locating hole goes towards the front, the axle perches rest on top of the U opening of the brackets and you reuse your factory u bolts and mounting plates. Some run shorter shocks, most don't bother with it. Thanks, Fred.

There is never a dumb question. We used the front springs from Summit. If you don't drop the front it will set higher than the rear end. Thanks, Fred

Re: Santa says, "Get down". Lowering brackets end of year sale.

Another uninformed question, does the frame need to be notched on a 74 Suburban??

Thanks & Happy Holidays from Daytona Beach!
