what are the similarities? i know the knuckles, leaf springs and differentials were the same, but what about front control arms, etc. i may be coming up on a 85 cutlass and i want to bag it if i get it but the G body air ride tech stuff is so expensive. does anyone know where i can get air bag brackets? also, would i need tubular control arms? i plan on running 20s in back and 18s up front. thanks alot
You mentioned leaf springs...the G-body was a 4link rear-end. Not Leaf's. There are 2 different sizes of Spindles for the G-body. 78-80 and 81-88. The S-10 shares the same Lowers, and Spindles as the 81-88 G-body. The uppers, I'm not 100% percent sure about. There are Tubular Dropped Lowers, that has `bag cups attached. They are marketed as an S-10 part, but they also bolt onto a G-body. Why would you run 20's, and NOT run them in all 4 corners? 17's + 18's look good....but IMHO, a 20's + 18's may not look as good as you think it will... Ryan
