20 seconds in and I already love your channel. Bee seeing all your videos ✌️

Monroe was all I needed to hear.

ha awesome- like how you drive that truck- just bought a 96zr2- the drive great !🤠✊

I have a '96, 5 speed running 31" but I put 2" blocks between body and frame all around. picked up some upper control arms on Amazon for '99.00 but they alone won't work because of the angle it puts the cv axles. I pointed out to the seller that they won't work without the rest of the stuff in the $500 kit and lowering the diff. too, that I'm 63, disabled and that removing, installing, then doing it again to put old control arms back was a whipping so she returned money said I could keep the control arms. Figure I'll get a correct pattern for the adapter mounts, cut them out with plasma, and then lower my diff. I will pick up these keys and shackles. I picked up this '96 for $600 3 years ago with a broken rev/5th shift fork, dropped the trans and bought a new shift fork for $52 and just have fun fixing it up. I've owned 6 and fixed countless in my shop near Denver over the last 20 years. I still have my shop out back, but just for myself and friends. I've done 350 swaps and really want to do an LS into mine. But this NV3500 5 speed behind this 4.3 has plenty of balls. Thanks for the key and shackle info. Also, I picked up some LED headlight on Amazon for cheap, but they are listed under Kenworth. Merry Christmas everyone.

Budget building buddy! The epitome of American hotrodding!

Not for you my man, but yo viewers. With the plate forward the shackle can use that plate against frame rail rolled forward in a "tension" style, what THIS is going for is a "compression" style shackle lift....just an FYI, these are also used in trailer and car applications all the time. Just make sure you know what you are going before installing your "universal" parts! Hope that helps clear up the "pretty sure these are backwards " for the kid reading this

🤙🏼 that intro

I raised my front by going to a salvage yard and buying the torsion bars from a zr2, however I can't level it to the back because I ran out of adjustment for camber. Torsion bars on a zr2 are thicker and gives it a stiffer ride like a 4x4.

Is this all you've done lift wise to the truck? I already have shackles on my s10, but I need to get the torsion keys. Does the air shocks lift it even more or does it just even out the back?

Wonder how much different that is from the blazers

Just a quick and simple explanation of how shit works. So many people would have made this an hour-long, boring video. Thank you.

I regret doing this to my SUV. My u joints always broke prematurely and the transmission went out due to added stress

Nonchalant 45 says what?, my P220 stays on my passenger seat as well ;) and you are correct, on 90% of Soa and shackle kits. The plate always faces rear

wouldn't it work better to move the rear end above the springs?

What size are those rims and the wheel???

Does the base model 2001 s10 2wd have torsion bars

Your shackles are definitely on backwards Jarrett. Lol

How long did it take to put on?

By any chance do u have a video of when u installed the lift kit?

Where is the link for this lift kit

When I looked on EBay, they’re all sold out! I was hoping to buy it for my s10, but does anyone know if this will fit a 1996 4 door s10?

Did you ever end up installing the diff drop?

I know this video is old but will these types of kits work on a zr2

How do I find some wheels cause I found some 5x5 jeep lug nut pattern wheels but the s10 is 5x4.75. So they won’t fit right?

Will those shackles fit the zr2 ?

Why won’t this work on the crew cab ?

Whats that vulnerable. Red wire or cable just hanging there?😮

Why not a 2" block?

Would this kit work on a 04 Sonoma?

Does this put a lot of stress on the cv axles up front
