      G body shocks in S10

      Will G body shocks fit the front of a 2wd S10? They look identical and fit the height dimensions I need being lowered. I know the springs fit but need info on shocks before I pull the trigger. Thanks!

      As far as I know, the chassis' and suspension is all very similar, so they should work.

      Spindles are the same, pretty sure upper & lower control arms are the same, springs are the same, so i would be shocks are the same.

      Front suspension is the same minus the LCA bushings and track width from the wider g body frame. Most of the steering part numbers match up too, except the centerlink.

      Our Moog catalog at work lists the LCA bushings as different numbers, as stated above other parts cross over. Anybody know what the difference is in LCA bushings? Do the LCAs themselves cross over?

      IIRC the bolt for the rear LCA bushing is a bit larger in the S-series stuff - I can't recall the exact size but one of the vendors here should know.
