Re: Lowering 72 C10 suburban

I personally have the CPP 3/4 drop and no issues. Seems like it depends on the Suburban. I have heard some people running a 5" drop in the back with no issues and some say it hits the frame. My advise is that is you run anything more than a 4" drop in the back; do a C notch. Good luck!

I'm trying to figure the same thing out for my suburban. I talked to the guys at early classic and was told 3/5 drop was the lowest as long as you don't put a third row and fat people in the back.

I have the 3/5 and every once in a while I hit a dip or a bump and it hits the frame.

Mines like 6 in the front and 5.5 in the rear. Haven't really driven it on rough roads to say how it rides.
