ill prolly go for it if i still cant find anyone who has by the time i do actually drop my truck. hopefully this wll be real soon. finding the time when i have the money is the problem right now.

i still need to get to pick-a-part and pull the steering shaft from a astro van. i used one on my monte, it tightens up the steering and gave me alot more clearance for headers. but i looked on my bud's project truck laid out on the ground with no fornt end and the steering shaft is the only thing i see that could possibly mess this up. ive heard of guys flippin and swapping the lower control arms on the cavaliers so i would assume the geometry would be better also on our trucks flippin the uppers.
