How similar to s10 suspension??

[NoRest92]

Hey guys I have a 1985 Buick Regal Limited and I'm looking into options to lower it. I can't afford air ride or coilovers so I'm limited to blocks, springs, or spindles. I want a 2" on both ends which is surprisingly hard to find for a G body car. I know they share similar suspensions with s10s, but are they exactly the same? I can find a million lowering kits for s10s from a variety of stores, so it they'll work it'd be a whole lot easier.

Here's the products I'm looking at:

I didn't look at your links but, the front springs and drop spindles for a S10 will interchange as long as your talking 2wd.
Lowering the rear of a G body gets a little more tricky.

UMI sells 2" lowering rear springs, http://umiperformance.com/catalog/index ... cts_id=772
a very easy swap but any time you change your ride height you should verify your pinion angle is correct and if it needs adjustment you will need at the very least adjustable upper rear control arms.
Your rear lowering kit in your link is for a leaf spring set up all you need are shorter coil springs in the rear.

Thanks for the help guys. I think I'll probably order those UMI springs and go for s10 spindles up front and see what I'll have to do about the control arms once I test fit everything
