Front lift question
« on: April 14, 2015, 11:42:14 AM »
On my 1982 GMC Sierra k2500 the front nose dives and I hat it it makes the truck look retarded. I was wondering how I would go about leveling it out, I've thought about 2 inch front springs but I've also had people tell me 4 inch front springs. Any suggestions?

you could take a leaf out of the rear or you could add a zero rate leaf to the front

Stock suspension? Over time, springs can loose their temper and settle. 

A spring shop can take your springs, re-temper and restore or reshape the springs back to original specs.
