Re: Make it handle
Can I get some help with understanding truck suspension?
Meaning, I have a 1984 C10 and a 2015 Toyota Tundra. I love my Tundra's ride and power just fine, so I'd like to replicate it. Not so much get it to handle like a sports car but more of a modern truck. Only suspension improvement I did to my 4.6L SR Tundra was Bilsteins all around and a rear sway bar.
So what improvements could I make to closely mimic my Tundra?
Example for improving the rear suspension -
C10 with new shocks and improved panhard bar = Modern Truck
C10 with new shock, leaf springs and trailing arms = Modern Performance Truck
C10 with a 4-Link suspension in the rear = Modern Sports Car
Am I making sense? What I'm trying to do is improve the truck to be decent handling like a modern truck, I'm not looking for it to act like a Corvette.
I thought this might be a good thread to throw out this question. Hope I'm not out of place. Thanks in advance!
