everyone would trip when i loaded my bagged truck down like this, there like can it even haul ... and i would be like prolly better then before ... lol 

From the angle of the load I'd say his bed floor was raise quite a bit. I love the air out look but to lay frame in a truck it costs too much bed depth

both my chevys were layed with out getting into the bed ..i hate sacrificing the bed .. my mazda had a gappin whole in the bed but i was building a raised when i sold it ... the dually had the tanks inthe front of the bed and i hated that ... i loved all my rigs not showing there skills ...the two door tahoe is next if i dont bang the van to its rockers real quick

dude i been searching for a windowless slider for a grip now .. gm wants a grand for a new shell ,.,, whos drop parts did u use, i can tell u three inch s 10 coils and spindles make it too low,  i like the impala ss wheels

I guess I should not tell you that I just installed a windowless slider on it Friday.

 

  Here are a list of the parts I used,

 

  Belltech 2 inch drop spindles

  Moog replacement front springs with a little trimmed off

   KYB Gas-a-Just front shocks

 

  Rear DJM flip kit set in the middle hole of the adjustable shackle, NO C notch .

  Not sure if it is low enough in the rear but I still have not decided on what short rear shock's to get yet.

  The DJM kit has some extra feature's but is not as nice a quality as the Bell tech kits I have used in the past, but you cant beat the price.

 

Slider with window,

I hate u ... lol   i used air shocks and yes i used the djm flip kit, its decent... they had to send me a second one cause the first one looked used and was missing stuff.... there notch was meah !!!    i wont do bolt in, in this van ... there notch wasn't wide enough id didn't sandwich together enough and there was a gap one one side... but worse was drilling 8 holes per side and getting them to line up ... fuck me ... just gonna trim the notch area out and make a weld in one real quick ... way faster... i used no name drop spindles then the 3 inch coils and it drug the tires on the inner fenders instantly ... crossmember was dragging too .. so i cut a coil off the stock coils to make it drive able cause i wasn't gonna wait while i ordered another set ... I used monroe air shocks out back ... loved them for the 7 days i drove on them .. 

 

one thing i hate about the new van is the previous owner leaned on the door to much getting in and the hinge is separating from the door ... stupid gm and there glue on hinges... lazy fuckers.....gotta replace the pins too but the hinge is worse 

 

so will any door work from any year astro van ... ?

 

Was stoked found one online emailed the guy he was like sure 60 bucks .. then i said isi it nice and he says mint ... then emails right before i left and said ohhhh the window ones i have are mint the solid is fucked up and dented everywhere.....saved me a 3.5 hour drive one way 

 

do the grill swap too .. its bolt on ... i had to solder the headlight harness to the old one but it was easy .. it all bolts up ...found the headlight assembly's cheap at a yard
