My buddy used a new set of these bars on his V8 swap and it ended up riding very rough, but he did it to crank them way up and use for a lift. I think he had them cranked way too far, but you shouldn't have this problem in your Bravada, cause I'm sure you not going to lift it right? _____________________________ ASE & GM certified Pro Auto Technician (in reply to swartlkk) Post #: 21

I do not plan on lifting it any time soon... _____________________________ Kyle- 2004 Rainier 1970 Chevelle - Resto 1974 K5 Blazer - Resto (in reply to lastcoupe) Post #: 22

Take what you think it will cost, add 20% then double it. =) (in reply to swartlkk) Post #: 23

What kind of budget are you looking at for the swap? (222k kms on my blazer, thinking maybe 350 swap when it goes) I'm in Woodstock too (in reply to lastcoupe) Post #: 25
