    Is there any tricks for getting these old front shocks out?????

    Hmmmm i didnt think of heating it up. And yeah i used a ton of PB blaster and it did no good! Having to hold it with a pair of locking pliers and loosen that bolt is a joke. The passenger side is in a bad spot!!!!!!!!! I may have to take a cut off wheel to it if the heat dont do the trick.

    Is there any tricks for getting these old front shocks out?????

    I just got done cuting half a coil to bring me down to 5" up front. Everything is buttoned back up except for them stupid @$$ shocks! I got the bottom 2 bolts off the lower control arm but the top bolts are stuck like chuck! I believe they are the stock shocks and that top stud is rusted bad...

    Guys...Is she worth it?

    I'm quickly learning these gmt400 trucks are easy to come by on craigslist as parting out. Motor, tranny, and other odds and ends I don't think you'd break 600 bones if you can find someone parting out a truck on craigslist. He'll you may even find your lift kit that way too. I really hope you...

    Bench seat alternative's?

    I have a base model 95 rcsb Cheyenne and just about got the exterior thing wrapped up. The interior is super clean but the seat has a couple tears in it and will need addressed. My plan is to paint/dye my grey door panels black, a compass and temp rear view mirror and do something about the...

    static drop pics

    6/9 I thought that truck was 5/8? Not trying to be contradicting just been keeping up on your build thread. I'm a fan of the truck fo sho. Looks great but a flip kit with 2" drop shackles only brings you down 8". Needless to say that's a sic ride. Sent from my LG-P769 using Tapatalk

    How much do I cut for 1"

    I got a 4/6 belltech drop. I'm wanting to go 5/8. I already got 2" lowering shackles for the back. As far as the front goes how much do I need to cut off a belltech 2" drop spring to make it 3"? I know on the stock coils I need to cut a half coil for 1" of drop. Does the same rule apply for the...

    Frankenstein the 95

    well I didn't get around to installing the drop shackles like I planed on. But I did put the brake booster on which was way easier than I expected. Just pushed the master cylinder forward, unbolted the booster, and popped that clip off the pedal rod. Way easy, probably a hour and a half job. I...

    Drop shackles

    I ordered 1" to 2" drop shackles so I can go a total 8" out back. But when I measured the stock shackles it looks like they will move my leafs up 2" to 3". Could my truck have some lift shackles on it? Or did I measure it wrong? They are a perfect bolt up and look like they will clear my bed...

    Primer for emerald green and a good 2 tone?

    A really good friend of mine has a couple spray guns and a compressor. He has painted a few things (fenders etc) but never a complete vehicle. I just might talk him into doing the whole thing. Sent from my LG-P769 using Tapatalk

    Frankenstein the 95

    Ok so here's the deal. My drop shackles, material for my super notch, rear air shocks and a few other goodies came in. I drive truck for a living so I'm only home about once a week, and every time I'm home it's been freezing cold (literally). But this upcoming weekend I will be getting some $#!+...

    Did i install my flip kit wrong??????

    Was the normal bolt in notch good enough for 8" of drop? Were you bottomoning out alot? I got air shocks with the extenders. And where 2 degree shims enough to keep the driveline straight? Im deffinetly going with the rounded u bolts and fliping everything over like yours.

    Did i install my flip kit wrong??????

    This thing aint going anywhere till im sure lol. But yeah im getting some round u-bolts and fliping it around. The spindles and springs up front went really smooth. But that back half its a nightmare, i think it was not installed rite in the donor truck.
