What would be the height of the express with the 5" lift and 33 inch tires? My garage door height is 8 feet, will it fit inside?
Could you turn fan up? The background noise made for a poor video production.
Please post Part 2 if you have it recorded.
great video. i think a little more light would give a better view tho
Why the difference between 2000 and 2003? What changed? Hardly anyone has spindle lifts for 2000 Chevy 1500 vans.
Hey Weldtech! This video is great. Do your spindle kit's work on Express 1500 with the 135" wheelbase? or only the 2500/3500?
What's the price for this front end lift kit?
I was very interested in the kit and install up until the part where zip ties was used, that seemed so back-yard rigged for the price of the kit.
Is the ride or factory suspension adversely affected at all, with this kit? Example, I once bought what I thought was a full lowering kit for a car once, only to find out later that I should have also bought offset bushings for the rack and pinion to correct "bump steer", and caster camber adjusting plates for shock towers, because they correct more adjustment for proper alignment. I was disappointed by suspension kit and the sales people for not properly informing me of this.
2599.oo for that little bit of crap..I am all for ppl making a profit and a good living,but rip off artists can get fucked..so,get fucked,Weldtec.
I want to lower my Chevy Express in the front 2"
Is there a kit or do I have to cut springs?
Hey Weldtec ..will this spindle design work for a 2000 GMC Savana 3500? ..I’m looking to elevate my cargo van ..let me know your thoughts as obviously you know that the Express and the Savana’s are the same chassis ..however ..the model year 2000 might be different than the current models your working on ..let me know your thoughts ..or of any suggestions you might have ..you guys rock the GM conversions ..love the channel!
So other companies will sell you a 2" lift with U bolts blocks and coil spring spacers for the front, for a bout $300, this kit right here has 2 spindles, 2 overlay leaf springs and the fox shocks more over the other kits. So for these extra parts the price jumps $2300????? A rough country 6" kit for any pick up truck is is half that, how do you justify this insane price?
With this spindle set up, do the front wheels stick out farther?
Not only are the spindles taller they look thicker. where the four 15mm
bolts attach it looks thicker. if this is the case. the front wheels would track wider than the rear wheels.
Great video. Would this kit work for a AWD EXPRESS? From my understanding my AWD is a Tahoe/Avalanche . Or do you have a similar kit for my application?
Aloha and Mahalo from Hawaii! Great video by the way!
U recommend a upgraded swaybar ?
FINALLY! An informational video from weldtech
Went on your website, according to it I guess you dont lift Chevy Astros?
I have a year 2000 GMC Safari van will this lift kit work on my van? 626-726-5727 that's my personal cell
Is the spindle design the same on a 2000 Express ?
