Default 73-87 lowering ?

My friend wants to lower his 78 C10 RCSB stepside. Who makes good quality lowering components for these trucks? He is thinking about a 2" drop all the way around. and some swaybars too.
Thanks.

Belltech and Hotchkis make some good stuff for that truck.. also djm and maybe ground force??

Eibach makes progressive springs aswell. 2/4 would be better than 2/2 unless he wants look just a little lower than stock with the bed still higher...

He was thinking a 2" rear drop because he hauls engines and the like often and does not want to have it bottoming out. plus, he would like to keep it kind of a sleeper.

Thanks for the help with the companies.

For 2" in the rear, I'd say some belltech shackels...

Cool deal. He decided on 2" drop spindles up front so far.
I'll let him know about the rear.
