ditch the toolbox, get 2" drop spindles and 3" ANGLED or TAPERED blocks from racecraft, it will look pimp, nice n low

I want to lower it more. At least make it level becasue the back end is higher like any normal truck. I have taken it almost completely back stock other than the xtreme body kit. I have shaved the logos and blacked the front bowtie. I have added foglights to the front, and a 12" highfonics, and a 100 watt amp. Dropped the toolbox, and added a leather tonneau cover, blacked the taillights and added my own LED breaklights/turn signals. Thanks for the suggestions and keep them coming I'm totally open to new things to do to it.

i say rip off the kit, sell it at a tupperware party , take that money and slam that thing. your on the right path man. keep up the progress.

I really wana keep the kit I actually like it. Thats the main reason that I wanted to buy the truck. But I would really like to lower another couple of inches. Well at least 2 or 3. It already has 2 in the front and 3 in the back. so a total of 4 and 6 would be perfect.

id def keep the body kit, 2" drop spinldes in front and 3"angled blocks in back would have it low and level, lowerin blocks r retardly simple to put in and drop spindles are pretty simple themselves too lol, a rollpan is almost a must have too!!

and the xtremes and zq8 trucks were lowered 1" in front and 1.5" in rear, 1" lowering springs in front, and a pulled leaf in rear, if u look u only have 3 leafs in ur leaf springs where as a regular s10 has 4, this is good news for u because all u gotta do is put in drop blocks and ull see a HUGE difference, plus with ur bodykit ull look low as fuck lol

Sweet man good looking out. I really want to do the blocks for the leveling I've wanted to do that for awhile now since I have the weight in it for the winter it is level and I love it. Umm spindles are a little pricey so ill start setting money aside for them and the blocks are cheeper than crap! So ill get it done sometime. I'm going to probably keep the bumper I like it I had a roll pan and wasn't that impressed with it and a plus the bumper covers a spot where someone hit me on the rear panel on the bed. I'm going to get a couple pix out soon of my progress on the striping of the stripes and the hood...so thanx brando for ur help and suggestions

I will be adding new pics soon! I have monday off from work benifits of working at a bank. Umm i will hopefully have all the striping off, new hoodscoop on, and all lights blacked out and worked up a unique look on the led tailight bar. Then my xtreme wheels will b flat bronze! I can't wait to get working on it again. Also adding 2 12' subs in the back with a 1500watt amp, but keeping the stock head unit I kinda like it! lol
