Bagged C20 Project

Hello all, new to the forum! I recently picked up a '70 C20 Inline 6 3 speed column shift a couple months ago. Minimal rust on the body, no rust on the frame!

I'm just now getting around to piecing together the air ride suspension! I want to do a pretty basic setup for now, but later down the road I might decide to lay frame.

Here's a few photos of her:







The suspension plans are to do disc brake converted 2.5" drop spindles, possibly cupped lower control arms,
factory trailing arms for the rear, and a minor C notch like this:



As for the air ride, I'm thinking of AirLift 2600 bags, 2 Viair 480 compressors, 5 gallon tank, and analog management.

If any of you have any suggestions, tips or tricks, please post a reply!

You will probably need to add 2-2.5 inch blocks in the back and a long panhard rod. Looking forward to seeing the progress pics.

It's hard to explain puns to kleptomaniacs because they always take things literally.

Thanks! I forgot about the blocks, but never thought about the panhard rod. I guess I'll figure that out later on
