Anyone have good links to some G-body setups? I have been told my old school thinking is way out of date.... Last time I checked the setups i was shown are still in use today. I am not asking for your personal setups, but any info would be good thanks.

if you're thinking front springs over 600 lbs, you're old school, if you want any specifics, just pm me.

Well, our earlier setups in Monte's, Malibu's were springs rates way over 600. With some ball joint changes, proper ackerman, wedge dialed up, I don't think this will work with an S-10 pickup. I have grabbed an S-10 for next years Enduro season, for the low low price of free. So I will be building it this winter, and would like to be close right out of the box. I do feel any spring over 800 would be high for this chassis, because the curb weight on this truck is low. Mind you, the roll center is somewhere near China, because of the geometry. Thankfully, it's leaf rear end. But it changes many things for the front based on how narrow the truck is. Basically I would like your theories, and thanks 33, I will be talking with you for sure when we start ripping it down.

Not to worry, the rice box has a driver for the full season. The Honda will still be going out until Shaun decides to go faster with a V8.
