NONE...the torsion bar will only be for side-to-side cornering~

suggest an air-lift shock with a remote schroeder valve on the bumper that you can put more air in if the extra height is needed~

okay they have two thousand products for the S10~ http://www.summitracing.com/search? SortBy=BestKeywordMatch&SortOrder=Ascending&keyword=S10
There are not two thousand products for the S-10. Sorry Judge you are mistaken. There are two thousand two hundred fifty.

well sad to report that all were not for the Chevy S10 some were just called "S-10" 'cause it sounds sexy~ you know I should have done MORE research to find a value for this individual....my .59 Catalina had NO torsion bar...guess you did not need to make rapid turns in them days~

disregard all of the above. he knows nothing about this. you can't put air shocks on the front. if you crank up the torsion bars you can possibly lift it about 1 1/2 inches. make sure to jack up the front end while you are cranking the bars or you may break the bolt. you may have to put it up and down a time or 2 to make sure it's level. the bolt might not be set the same side to side to be level.
