Quote from: oddball on September 26, 2009, 02:22:12 PMAny advice on the parts to buy and do a drop the right way would be appreciated,about all I really know about dropping it is spindles,springs,shocks,and blocks.Since I will be there I want to rebuild the front end,bottom to top,as I said,any and all advice is appreciated,suspensions are kind of like physics to me,I don't know jack shit about either! If you are rebuilding the front end might as well do the tall balljoint swap and drop spindles. That would bring it down 2 1/2" up front.There are a few way to go about it.1)UB Machine upper control arms, C10 upper ball joints (FA903 is the part number for McQuay-Norris and Duralast) and HOWE or Power Performance tall lower ball joints. This would be the least expensive combo. This is the swap on my truck and it came to about $220 or so.2)SPC upper control arms with PP tall upper and lower balljoints. The arms are more expensive but are a lot nicer.3)SPC uppers and HOWE balljonts. All top of the line parts and the balljoints are rebuildable. Might not want to pary $85+ per balljoint.SPC arms and HOWE balljoints from here (Marcus gives a military discount):http://www.scandc.com/products.htmPower Performance ball joints:http://www.powerperformancemotorsports.com/category.sc;jsessionid=E085B8694A4BC0D1D72B6703CE61C926.qscstrfrnt02?categoryId=29UB machine:http://www.ubmachine.com/Now UBM will be a bit of a pain since you have to talk to them. Ask for Tony and tell him you want the metric chassis tall balljoint swap upper control arms that use the C10 balljoint. Mention Michel Crawford and or Eric Howell when you call. Mine were $127 shipped to give you an idea of price but they were only the second set so the price may have changed.Rear you could use blocks, ZQ8 springs (not sure how much they give on 1st gen) or drop springs.
