Since they are made for a spring under set up and have a very high arch built into them, I think they will most likely provide to much lift and a very stiff ride.

do they have the same eye to eye? or are you going to be moving hangers?

they are still made for s10 weight so i doubt they would give a bad ride.

i'm going to get some measurements, i think they may be close, one other note, the ZR2 uses a rear track bar.

This might be something I'd be interested in. ZR2's are axle over leaf aren't they?

So do the 2wd S-10's have a lowering block from the factory or do the ZR2's just have lifted leafs?

This would be interesting. I'm curious about the length also. Good deal, Mark, if it turns out you've got something.
