Re: new to me 85 burb. need lowering help

1. if flipped you can use stock c-10 front hangers to raise rear up some
2. you need to cut access hole in spare tire well to pull rear shackle bolt out. then just plug with rubber plug,Doorman has good selection.
3. use raised front shock mounts- that way you have large selection of stock front shock length,which ride and perform better,plus you keep shock at correct working angle.
4. if using taller shackles,if going to top hole,you'll need to modify gas filler hose,if using first hole ,than you need to trim some off so it doesn't hit filler tube.

5. front bump stops,cut factory mount off ,and use a studded aftermarket one,and trim to desired bump,you may need to drill 3\8 hole in lower a-arm for stud on bump-stop
hope any of this helps.
