  1. My only question is .. why would you show and use a kit that is no longer available ?? thats like her there is a nice piece of candy .. OOO no no YOU cant have it only we can …

  2. That 5 link is WAY overkill, you can lay frame on a S10 with just a basic notch and use a mono leaf with block most of the time. If you wanna lay with wheels bigger than like 18s then yea you need a link set up, but then the rear will be the least of your worries, the front is where you need major surgery to lay frame

  3. Are you guys gonna do a full build video on the S10 when it's done??? Also I have an idea for your next build. Take a OBS Chevy or GMC and build a Phantom Dually Truck. Either a single cab or extended cab RWD long bed and put dually bed on it with some super wide tires and wheels on the back. LS Swap or a decent Vortec 350. 5 or 6 speed swap. Maybe a c notch with a suspension drop. Nothing crazy, just a cool budget friendly daily driver or shop truck. I hope to do this one day and would like to see what you guys would come up with. 😎

  4. Boa tarde congrats carros this owner built 1972 Chevy c-10 longped makes a Big impression, custom g 1951, this bagged c-10 at the beachis the best, what s LT like to drive a 1964 c-10 truck? ( Supercharged Chevy lsa), 570 Hp ls3 swapped Chevy sububan hot Rod, 80 c-10 drag truck page 2 – the 1947 – presen t Chevrolet GMC truck message board network, this 1967 Chevy c-10 is smokin, duramax diesel powered 1956 Chevy, Marty -s 1965 c-10 vai trabalhar c-10 era Detroit pistons uau sabia de tudo 😮

  5. I would never trust a bolt on back half, besides all those bolts look like crap. I would've bolt it together and then weld it up for extra strength front and back . And box in the rear frame section for even more support

  6. That is false info. The majority of drops on these trucks are static, mainly a 2/3 drop with drop knuckles/spindles up front and a couple of blocks out back. I can tell these guys are talking out of their asses.

  7. I wish they wouldn’t waste so much time endorsing products no one can afford, and silly go pros on every camera angle. I watch these videos to see you know working on trucks
