'72 C10 Suspension Q's
I'm currently starting work on a 1972 C-10. It's somewhat rough, but nothing too intimidating.
My root questions lie in the area of suspension--I'm not a guy too experienced with truck or towing suspension.
My wants are:
Lowered about 5" front and back. I have no problem rewelding mounts, etc.
My need is: That I'd like to still be able to tow with it from time to time. I recently sold my '96 Dodge 3500 Cummins, but still have a light trailer and race car that I'd like to tow to the track. The car and trailer together weigh in at around 4500lbs. (open deck trailer).
What I was looking at was the rear air bag suspension setup from "Early Classic Restoration and Suspension". This *seems* to be the setup that I should use, however, I was wondering if anyone else might have a better solution or any feedback on such a setup.
Thanks in advance for any insight.
I believe this was somewhere around 2015, Rick, Rosie and Johnboy
