Replaced carb and engine runs great. Moving on to brakes. Turns out engine is a 350. This projects keeps getting better.

My truck has Auxiliary Leaf Springs. Can I use them with the 4" drop springs or will they need to come off?

Re: Christmas in September 66 c10

I have the aux springs too I got two blocks and cut the bottom pig tail off the ride on the extra spring little bouncey but smooth with 600lb of cement bags. Better shocks location will help that.

If you have a long bed, your lengths need to be longer than 8'.
