Hey guys, New to the C10 world and looking to lower my truck. I have been doing a bunch of reading about different kits and trying to decide what to go with. So im looking for personal experiences, input, suggestions, info etc. After reading so much it becomes a blur!
Currently Im looking at 4/6 drops from Belltech, DJM, Western Chassis, and McGaughtys (open to any other suggestions)
If I recall correctly, there are some issues with certain drop spindles and stock rims?
Also, I have seen some kits that use a C notch, while others do not, or have it as an option. for example, Western Chassis, the kit offers 6 inches of drop, what is the reason to opt for the C notch kit with it then?
Any input would be great! thanks in advance

I'm a bell tech guy all the way, they make great products. The c notch is a must for the 6 inch drop in the rear to allow the suspension to travel for a good ride.

ok, thanks. do you know if the belltech kit allows for the use of the stock 15's?
Anyone else have any input?

Cnotch is only required for more than 6 inches of drop in the rear and you plan on carrying heavy loads. CUt off the rear bump stops. I have a 6 inch flip with bumps cut off and have more then 3 inches of clearance.
