Just order the s10 cups from SD, you need to know what Height you need? What size wheels do you plan on running?

Well I was going to use the Gen 3 Bridge kit, but decided on just using the 5link bolt-on with super-pivots.

I was gunna run 20x8.5


EDIT: Or what would I need to get the Gen 3 bridge to work? I would need a link kit wouldnt I? Or would the Gen 3 work fine by itself.

All the bridge kit is good for is the monster notch plus the upper bag mounts, but thats for running air over axle and that was THE thing to do 5 years ago. If you want any decent amount of lift ( which you will with a 20" wheel ) I would suggest going with air over bar, such as a 4 link with bags mounted on the lift bars or the 5 link. The 5 link is an AWESOME setup, pretty fool proof install as well.

If you did want to use that bridge kit, this would work for you: http://www.suicidedoors.com/4-link-kits/thorbec.../100-percent-bolt-s10-3-link-kit

Only problem there is going to be clearance of the diff bracket and the support bar that completes the bridge, which is unnecessary to begin with if your keeping the rear section of the frame.

Cheaper to go with the weld on 5 link, assuming you can weld or know someone that car. Either 5 link kit is great, only takes 3-4 weeks to get it from the day you order and it takes all the guess work out of an install because all of the engineering is already done. It really is the best package for someone new to air suspension for a mini truck.

My bad, I think you were talking about this kit but I somehow confused it with the bolt on back half. My apologies.

You have to weld the tabs to the axle, and the notches to the frame. Everything else is bolt-in.

Anyways, make sure you option the rear to come with RE-8's. Best bags for the 5 link, period.
