Part 10:  In this video, the 1991 Chevy OBS project truck gets a 4" rear suspension drop as well as new bushings.  Before you jump into a project of this magnitude, make sure you have the space and tools to get the job done. Air tools, chisels, floor jacks, hydraulic press all make the job easier but are not always required. Some can be rented others are a good investment.There are some tips for making the job easier (quicker). 

I tried to make the video as short as possible without leaving out important tips and steps.  If you enjoy the content of our videos, please hit the "LIKE" button, it helps us to provide the right content you want to see!
