Lowering the ride
When I got the truck it had air shocks and it had a bracket that attached to the rear axel looked like a big c the shocks were shot on the back I thought I had a bed wheel .Took it to a place in Macon Ga to check out the wheels when he put it on the lift he grabbed the rearend it was like it was just hanging I had 60 pounds of air in those shocks I replaced those shocks that day and looked he had replaced the shackels and flipped the springs to make it closer on the ground.Well when I replaced the front ball joints and shocks a arm,tie rod ends,and stabilizer links I saw that it had McGurdy front springs on the front the trucks rides a lot better but with it being lowered with the sepentioned much stiffer its level like I have said if you like the truck slammed to the ground go for but take in mind if you ever want to sell that truck you got to have someone who like this type of ride. I took that c bracket off I put a chair on the back bed came across a railroad track and it slammed the back end.I went to a car lot and saw a truck like mine looked my hunch was confirmed the c bracket on the axel took that thing off put the shock on the rear axel I was completely sure at first since I hadn't put shocks on a car in years but I was right believe it drives and rides much better and handles like a dream but the ride is stiff too.
