Will this fit a 3/4 ton C20?
http://www.brotherstrucks.com/prodin...=LRL6372&qty=1
Are all leaf springs the same dimensions? |

Best way to find out is call and ask. I would think they would though....

Re: Will this fit a 3/4 ton C20?
even thoguh your longhorn is built as a 3/4 ton, it is built on the one ton frame, and they gave it one ton sized springs.

Re: Will this fit a 3/4 ton C20?
I called and asked, they will fit 1/2 ton trucks only. Does anyone know of lowering leaf springs for the 3/4 ton?

How low are you wanting to go?
Have you considered a "flip kit"?

Re: Will this fit a 3/4 ton C20?
Only four or five inches. I've looked at it pretty thoroughly and it would be totally slammed if I did that.

I replied in your other thread.
www.PerformanceOnLine.com sells them for C20 trucks.

How's the ride quality if you remove some leafs? Bouncy?

Re: Will this fit a 3/4 ton C20?
I removed the two smallest leafs and it rides a lot better, it is not bouncy at all. I think it softened it up just enough for the shock absorbers to actually absorb bumps. The back end sits 1" lower. I haven't put any weight in the back of the truck yet, I would imagine that if I try to haul something heavy it will probably sag.

Re: Will this fit a 3/4 ton C20?
I called Performance Online yesterday to ask how their leaf springs can fit both a C10 and C20. They thanked me for catching their error and are custom building me a set of 3/4 ton 5"drop leaf springs for the normal price. I highly recommended them.
