On S-10 with auto trans. there is no hop shock(newer models) This is easily solved for 10 bucks. Go to Autozone and get a Leafspring clamp kit. Put the clamps on the spring assembly, at the front of the overload, and clamp the whole pack together. The overload spring will now act as a traction bar, and resist the axel wrap we all know and hate. Here is the link for the clamp kit

This is great for static drops, as it does not hang down like traction bars.

Will this work on my 97' s10? It's an auto, but you said only the newer models would not have hop shocks, so just wondering.

Yes. If you don't have a hop shock, it will work.
