Shocks don't affect ride height unless they're fully compressed or extended. If they're stock and old they definitely aren't holding anything up.
Yes and yes.
Revisiting the "why does Belltech say the 722SP kit won't fit my truck" conversation...
Wow…. so they “factor in” cab weight but don’t offer kits that differentiate between 5.7 vs 6.5 weight?Revisiting the "why does Belltech say the 722SP kit won't fit my truck" conversation...
I used their website contact form to ask what kit to use on a '93 C3500 regular cab, and why did the 722SP kit say it isn't compatible?

Hello, Thank you for contacting Belltech Suspensions. Unfortunately we do not offer a kit for the standard cab application.

That's it? I'm trying to spend $1500+ on parts from your company and you can't answer the question? Please pass it to a tech person please to explain to me why

The main difference is going to be the weight and the spring rate. Of course the crew cab and extended cab applications are going to need a stiffer spring versus the standard cab. The kit would physically fit but it will give you a stiff ride and may not lower the vehicle as the kit is advertised to do.
OMG a stiff ride from a static dropped C3500. Holy jeezus.. and I'm really not thinking there's gonna be a big difference in the front springs on a RCLB C3500 and ECLB C3500, but maybe I'm just dumb.

Yeah...you can look up the springs separately and say they're "compatible" but those same springs in the kit and that's somehow the reason the kit isn't compatible? It's baffling.
