    Time to free the rear from the stock spring perches. As you can see the stock U bolts were close to being rusted all the way through.

    Time to reduce the weight in the rear. No more ungainly hitch and removing the rear bumper.

    We decided to take another step besides rebuilding the suspension and brakes. A 5"/6" drop is in the works. Western 2" dropped spindles with Western 3" dropped springs for the front and a Belltech flip kit for the rear. We will be using Belltech shocks as well front and rear.

    As you can see in the previous pictures the brake lines are being replaced with stainless steel versions, so no more worries about rust and corrosion. My son also rebuilt the rear drum brakes when he was replacing the brake lines.

    The plans are to get it sorted out with new brakes and suspension parts. Everything must be replaced as it has over 260,000 miles on the odometer. Looks like the brake lines are not so well.

    Oh! That's not cool at all. Why do shops try to scam people? Do they think they can get away with that for very long?

    Does the C1500 Suburban have forge UCAs? If they do are they a viable alternative to stamped steel UCAs of the normal C1500s? Thanks.

    Dropped spindle width

    Does the dropped spindle makers widen the front track? If so how much? I am looking for a 3" drop with stock width, I'd settle for a 2" if 3" is not available is the stock track. Thanks.
