Title: 1975 lowered c10 swb stepside
Post by: dalefan613 on October 08, 2013, 09:51:00 pm
I lowered my truck with the bell tech kit spindles and coils in front and the shackle hangers lowering kit and took out the overload and one spring still have six leafs the drive shat seems to be at an awkward angle if I would have used the flip kit would this have been better?  also I read about rear end shims my kit didn't come with these do I need them my truck is lowered 4" in front and 6 in the rear has a great stance just wonder if im messing up the drivetrain

After lowering you should always check the pinion angle.  If it is off, it will eventually kill the U-joints.
