cheap and easy lowering kit

[GeneP]

A couple items of caution that you might wanna be aware of as I found on my son's s-10 when he purchased his already lowered s-10, that the"Universal" lowering block kits provide the wrong size "U-Bolts" for the rear axle. The s-10 rear axle is 2 3/4" in diameter while the universal u-bolts measure 3" as shown on this website: http://jagsthatrun.com/Pages/Parts_S...y-U-Bolts.html

My son's s-10 had the 3" ones. They would not stay tight and allowed the rear to shift. You also need to consider the axle alignment & provide proper phazing of the driveshaft to prevent damage to components & vibration: https://shell7.tdl.com/~jags/Pages/P...lignShims.html

I got the kit from the site I listed. The kits are inexpensive, easy to install, and they work as advertised.

i'm not the low rider builder type, but i like the look. if people don't like the answers they get on here.......well then you need to look for a shop locally to find the answer you want are use the many search engine on the net and stop all the bs arguing, it just makes anyone involved with it look like a bunch of old hens argueing over a stupid game of bridge

I have never claimed to "know everything". But, I do add my 2 cents worth into areas when I do know what I'm talking about. And it was a little noticable that the threads under your "forum name" were so close together within one week. Just stating the obvious !!!!!

You're right ... I'm done with him. I'm a lot more mature than that !!
