I am trying to finish up my suspension and I really have no idea what I am doing but I have a ton done. I would like to find someone in my area that knows a good bit about these C10 suspensions to help me wrap it up and double check my work.

Anyone around to help? Id be glad to pay for your gas.

If you are curious what I have done. ... I have installed a porterbuilt stage 2 kit with a mild notch in the rear and the porterbuilt drop memeber in the dront.

any help would be great... even if its just coming over to shoot the breeze and drink a beer. I just got my front break kit and rear tank. Its kinda tough building this thing on my own not knowing what I am doing lol.

Im doing a porterbuilt mild drop and a drop member with a rack and pinion with bags. But Ive got most of the hard stuff done with the cuts welds and mounting the big hardware. I just want to make sure Im doing this the right way. Any help would be great!.

If you were closer....

But, since you're not close by, post up some pics if you're un-sure about something. The net helps shrink the world. Even though someone might not be in your area, we're here to help.

posting pics has helped a ton. But Id like to find someone that is close that can sing by and confirm that I am doing things right and give me some good pointers on my build.
