    98 C1500 RCSB question

    Lots of guys do springs and ca's but I prefer spindles and springs. Drop spindles are made to the correct geometry when lowering your truck, don't get me wrong both ways will drop your truck I just like the latter.

    98 C1500 RCSB question

    It's really up to you and what you are doing with your truck. I didn't haul anything in my 88 and went with 4/6 McG's spindles and springs. Soon after driving it with factory sport wheels it wasn't low enough then bagged it.

    Larger Front Swaybar OEM Upgrade?

    I had tried a Helwig one when I was 4/6 and I could never get it to line up where the end links looked right. I think it would have worked if the truck wasn't lowered.

    Bagged break lines

    Bad battery or alternator?

    Tested battery and it needed to be replaced, hooked everything back up and used a voltmeter to check the alternator to make sure it was charging the battery and it read 14.65v so that is good as well. Since chasing the battery drain.

    Bad battery or alternator?

    I'm having a similar problem on my 89 dually, using the test light method pulled all the fuses one by one and the test light is still bright.

However I did not cut...
