Re: It's my turn, 47 S10 build

have someone substantial sit on it, it will droop more. once you get some weight on it it will be fine. the zq8s got a hop shock to keep the softer springs from wrapping too badly.


there are three 2wd leaf packs, the regular 2 leaf +overload, the highrider z85 3 leaf + overload (1" higher ride than the regular), and the zq8 lowered (1" lower than the regular). I have been told that the zq8 is a z85 with the smallest spring out. my truck has brand new z85 springs on it so I am going to pull the middle leaf and the overload and see what happens. the western chassis drop leafs are two leafs with no overload.
