This is my 1986 GMC Sierra Classic, C1500, SWB, 2WD. Completed drop January 2010.
Before: Stock suspension with 15" x 8" Rallies and 255/70R-15 Firestone Indy 500s.
After: Mild drop: 2.5" drop spindles (Western) and 4" drop hangers and shackles (McGaughys). KYB Gas Adjust shocks in front and LMC drop shocks in back. Used same 15" Rallies with 255/70R-15 Firestone Indy 500s.
Additionally, rebuilt entire front suspension and reused A arms and coil springs. New tie rods, ball joints, control arm busings, idler arm, pitman arm. Rear suspension: Reused leaf springs.
Much tighter ride/less body roll and yet very comfortable.
