Re: Drop Experts

I'm beginning to think the same thing, the spring eye fit was much tighter on the passenger side than the driver side. it's in now an all i have to do is get the toe in set and off to the alignment shop. Thanks bigblock73

I do the same thing after I work on the front end. My wife came out into the garage late one night after I replaced the front springs. I was jumping up and down on the front bumper and leaned over the radiator so I wouldn't hit my head on anything. She said "I know you LOVE your truck, but..."

Re: Drop Experts

I read on another forum that a lot of S-10 Blazers have this same problem after they lower it.... mine didn't though. So maybe it is just the fact that people don't get the spring seated correctly.
