  • I took the Chevelle out for a cruise and a few important nuts and bolts decided they did not want to go and ended up leaving themselves on the freeway. I limped the Chevelle around town on 3 shocks to just barely make it back to the shop! Let's see what really happened!

    The Chevelle is the kind of car where it's not perfect in paint or trim, but built with driveability and performance while still looking great.
    My kind of car.

    I have Ridetech on my 93 chevy OBS. Unhooking the sway bar well let the suspension drop down far enough to get the shock in and out. I put the perload in the shock on the bench. It's easier than trying use the spanner tool on the truck. I'm not sure about a chevelle, but maybe worth a try.

    Watching you reinstall the shock reminded me of me and my father installing shocks on the old family sedan. This work was usually done late at night and my job was hold the flashlight. Unlike Stix I was rather unsteady, my mind would wander, and I would lose my focus and get cussed out for not keeping the flashlight steady. And yeah, the neighbors would come over and hold conversations that would distract us from the job at hand. Yeah, good memories.

    I have to be honest here, I love watching Lucky as part of hot rod garage. This is the first episode of his channel that I have watched. Sadly, I found it very boring. Too much downtime. I hope future episodes that I watch have more of an entertainment value. Just my opinion as an ASE and Ford master technician

Used his floor jack to get it in the shop. Anyway, I lost a header bolt once, then got Stage 8 set and never again. Also have same Fel-pros 18 yrs. now. Well worth it!
