I'm looking to replace the shocks to a 99 C3500. I understand the rear shocks do not require the truck to be jacked up but my concern is the front. From my research online, it says to first inspect the frame to see if it is too rusted to be lifted. Could anyone give an opinion on the frame or the steps to properly jack it up? I can't afford to have it sent to a shop, but am willing to take the time and learn how to safely lift it with the correct size jacks, jack stands and lift points.
Edit: I have bottle jacks (one 12 ton, two 4 ton) from home repairs that I plan on using, not confident in what size jack axle adapter to purchase.
