The crew of Ekstensive Metal Works would handle getting things going on the S-10. While in their hands the stock suspension would accompany the trash man Wednesday morning. After boxing the rear frame rails, a set of Ekstensive ladder bars would be mounted up along with a panhard bar to help the rear suspension needs.

In helping bring the front down to match, a set of Bell tech spindles would be bolted up along with shocks to maintain a respectable ride. In today's scene ride height adjustability is a must, knowing this, a set of Firestone airbags where installed at all four corners along with Ekstensive's very own valves to allow the air to pass through at high speeds. With the suspension in place and the undercarriage resting firmly on the flat surface of Mother Nature, it was time for the crew from Ekstensive to bring the body down level. Performing a 2-½ inch body drop was found to be plenty to even things out. Now what's unique about this drop is the fact that the heater and air conditioning was all kept in tact. With the engine dropped the stock hood closes firmly leaving just enough room to latch.
