Ep. 18 - Leveling my 1980 Chevrolet Bonanza C10 with Drop Shackles

In this episode, I use a set of drop shackles to level the stance on my #1980 #chevrolet #c10 #squarebody #truck. The process is simple and can be done in an afternoon. The parts are readily available and Cheap.

1980 was the first year for square headlights & also the last year for round headlights. The square headlights came standard on models with the Silverado & Sierra Classic trim levels, & optional on models with the other trim levels. Those generation Chev & GMC fullsize truck models were built from 1973 - 1991 except the half ton & three quarter ton plain cab pickups were finished in 1987, & the one ton plain cab pickups were finished in 1989.

The blocks under the jack stands is legit when they are used in that manner it's called cribbing. The music was great and volume perfect. You should do more videos this was great.

Thank you! That's high praise. My microphone quit on me, and I'm finally buying a camera that's worth something. I'm working on doing more videos.

Great video. Whereabouts in Utah are you? I’m in west haven. Just got a78 square body and will need to do the same. Thanks!

[@Enviros]

Don't forget to reset your headlights or you'll be blinding folks.

[@steelmill]

Loosen the nut instead of the head on the bolt,it's alot easier.

[@boyescustoms]

Thanks for the tip.

[@DESERTHAWKIN]

Did you do the 1 inch drop or 2?

[@boyescustoms]

I dropped it to two inches. One inch wasn't enough.

[@DESERTHAWKIN]

I'm debating on doing my Suburban. I like how it's a reverse level type of drop, most minimal.

[@boyescustoms]

Yeah, it's pretty minimal. It worked out well for me for a while.

[@mboyes4203]

Make more videos. :)

[@boyescustoms]

Yes dear!
