      So ...... what does 21 pages of G-body owners get us? How about some more aftermarket support? I know that handling-wise we are taken care of now but, maybe some cool interior doodads like the F-bodies get offered??? Or G-body specific vintage air kits, since many of us remove the huge factory setup to gain room under the hood? Just wanting the cars we have to get some "luv".

      Lol! Thanks. I originally did it redneck style and cut mass quantities off the coils. IIRC it was 2 3/4 coils I cut off the front. Dropped the nose 4.5". BUT it's actually too low. It's resting on the snubbers and when I hit bumps it rebounds and makes for a fun ride going high speed on uneven roads. Keep tabs on my build thread link in my signature, I'm doing it right this time, 2" drop spindles and mildly cut springs for a 3.5" drop. Rear will stay at 3.5" as well.

      ^^ X2 on the well said.
      Some aftermarket parts I would like to see are:
      - aluminum cowl hood(s) 2", 4"
      - deep front inner fender tubs for big tires
      - rack & pinion kit
      - trunk/seat reinforcement bars
      - replacement dash cluster pod, that can fit some gauges AND keep the A/C
      - rear frame bolt-in crossmembers
      - interior door panels / rear seat panels
      - billet hood / trunk hinges
      - electric window motor/harness upgrade kits

      LOL yea I already have some cut springs from my old gta. They dropped my blazer 4.5 and still has some travel with the stops trimmed down. I wouldn't mind it so much for now if it's on the bump stops for now since it'll be a parking lot drift car till I can do some REAL suspension and steering mods. I was lookin for a new set of wheels to run until I seen how they look with that much drop, looks pefect to me! I'll be following your build build on here for sure! Once I get to a point to where I can make some progress on the car I'll start a build thread too.

      Believe me, the cars are getting noticed, and we're about to begin the R&D on several new G-body products. 2012 will be a very good year for the G-body! You'll see them here first!
