I tried looking into who exactly built that EL.... only thing I could find was it was built by ATS... might wanna try calling or emailing them.. maybe they can point you in the right direction.... I'm trying to find out more will let you know if I find out anything

Got off the phone with ATS, they said it was a one off piece that was built by their research department and have no intention for resale. Also spoke with PA and they said they dont offer anything for the 3rd gen nor will they. If I was going to retro one he said I would need longer springs and shocks. Sounds like a pain in the ass to me. All I want is 2" more in the front and Ill be happy. I would like a Bilstein leveling shock with the 3" spacer but I might run into some problems with alignment.

damn that sucks about ATS.... but I dont understand the need for shocks and springs... since a body lift does just that... lifts the body off the frame... the suspension remains the same... I could see some problems in the wiring but usually PA has brackets for remounting the wires to make them longer, also a steering extension...ect... someone must have a way to make a bigger kit for an newer expy.... its ******* me off now that I can't find anything....lol

I thought it would be... I'm gonna get some 315s and then might have to sell it but the $100K prerunner truck would tear the trails apart so I'm gonna install more offroad lights and do dual firestick antennas.....:joke::joke:

They do fit but the rear is the problem. I cant stack my spacers on top of the bilsteins either. I wish!
