suspension replacement - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jhcolli · 09-28-2003, 08:19 PM

I finally talked my Uncle into giving me his '69 GMC Custom 1500 after he stopped driving it about 7 years ago!

I am trying to make plans for upgrading the truck and need some help with finding parts. I would like to put airbags on with disc brakes, so I figured I would replace the front suspension with a new IFS with bags. Who makes a kit that I can use on this truck?

As for the rear, I plan on replacing it with a bag system with disc brakes as wel. Again, who makes replacements for this? I want to replace the third member and whole rear axle.

I have been looking at "Classic Trucks" magazine, but all I see are parts for the tri-5 trucks when it comes to suspension upgrades.

Thanks
