im tryin to figure out what the subframe is for if nothing connects to it. kinda seems like all its doing is reducing ground clearance.....o wait its a mall crawler. most curbs are only 6 inches high.


and why the 4 link is connected at the same point upper and lower. after everything ive read on here and a few other places that is alll sorts of wrong.

Must be nice to have all that money to build a truck like that just to keep it on pavement.

I had a 3 link in a bagged s10 I used to own. it had NO articulation. I can't even ponder what the benefit of a 3 link would be in a trunk that you want to pretend like it went offroad!

POS s10! haha I hate chevy! I didn't pay money for this. i traded some junk for it thinking I could sell it easily.

I have to disagree with you about that.......ALL trucks that have a bowtie on them are equally gay.

That drop hitch would look a lot better with some laser cut flames.
