Budget DIY front end lowering by cutting coils on Chevy square body pickup.

[@justin395]

Cotter key trick! I use a straight pick, pound it thru the round bit and then use the void with needle nose to grab and twist

[@MortskeRepair]

Split em at the upper ball joint. Makes life a lot easier. Don't ask me why.

Thanks for watching 😎

[@justin395]

Agreed, upper is the way

[@kenfrazier616]

elvis ball joint nuts, before popping them free, clean the threads with the nut then turn it back down for a safety removal

How did you lower the back? I have a C30 I want to lower a few inches

[@LandsharkGarage]

@@Chuck_S we used a shackle drop on rear of leaf spring. You could also take out some leaves or move front mount up by grinding rivets out and drilling and bolting further up on frame. If you do shackle drop you have to cut a bit out of one of the box crossmemeber but not a bunch of gave is about 1.5 inch drop pretty easy except the rust. Thanks for watching !

Nobody is going to tell you how bad you ruined that pickup? 😉

[@LandsharkGarage]

By lowering it? Elaborate please !

[@justinvantilburg9766]

@@LandsharkGarage oh everyone always gives @MortskeRepair a hard time for lowering his vehicles. Just giving a hard time. I love it, quite jealous in fact

[@LandsharkGarage]
