Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

for the s10 frame, the stock lowers are fine. I didn't even have to dehump mine. and I was maybe 3" or under off frame, RB hit ground. You can find some threads online s10forums and such, on how to dehump the arms if you need. Personally, lower arms are pricey and the stock lowers do the same thing. I rebushed mine, which was $75 I do believe, so new balljoints and bushings you got yourself in around 150$ give or take. Even if your lower arms where no good, I would find a used set or buy some OEM s10 arms. again its just one area where its not necessary spending hundreds of dollars on, esp early on in a build. Just my take

I used tubular upper and lower nice stuff link below. My frame sits about 3" off the ground. Cab is about 1/2" off the frame.
