I have read a lot of stickies and threads about big brakes and suspension changes. The question I have is……If you guys were going to make this truck a very nice go anywhere (that could be daily driven) C10 with a nice low stance, how would you go about it? What components would you use and why? I have a 67 NOVA with Heidts front IFS and rear 4 link thats rides like a dream and goes straight (even with a supercharger LS3) so I am somewhat familiar with suspension mods and I really like the Heidts stuff. I would like to use fairly big 4 wheel disk and some type of power steering or maybe power rack. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. This is one great forum you guys have going! I can see its going to cost me BIG BUCKS……. Thanks...
You bought a VERY nice truck.
I would look at Porterbuilt Fabrication.
Either their air bag set up or coil over chassis parts,...
