finally!!!!!!!! v8 powerrr!!!!!!! anybody know the 1/4 mile time of a stock 318 2wd 5 speed single cab short box? geeez what a mouth full lol!!! anyways, now that it runs and drives, now its time to make it look good! i need some help finding some parts. whatever is cheapest!!!! first, i want to lower it at least 4" in the back so it sits more level (1" gap in between tire and fender in front, 6" gap in back now. looks stupid!) ive been lookin at those block kits, but then do i need different struts as well? i also want a nice (but cheap!) roll pan, dosn't have to be painted. i want one of those big hood scoops you'd normally find on the older mopars, some hood pins, and an open (no cross hair) billet grille. black snap on head light visors. and i think thats it. for now at least! any help would be much appreciated!!! i'll have pictures up tomorrow.

 

the block kit for the Rear I have done on a S10 i put a 3inch block on the rear but I had air shocks in the rear for when I needed to haul something I could raise the back end a little more.

 

okayyyy soooo do i have to change my shocks if i get the block kit or no???

 

to be honest its all about how much it comes down aswell as how much travel is left in the shock some people can get away with out replacing it, some cant. my suggestion would be to lower then put in a common load see if she bottoms out. if she does then replace them. if not then leave er be.

 

gotchya, thanks. any suggestions on where to go for the parts im looking for? andys auto sport is all i know of, there's gotta be cheaper out there somewhere.

 

autozone has blocks for around $20 for an inch.

 

ebay, Summit Racing, Jc whitney.. I have gotten parts from them all and my last blocks i got from JC whitney. if your going more then a 2 inch drop block make sure it is tapered so you dont have an issue with your pinion angle.

 

thanks much!

 

have fun and good luck.
