The S10 stuff works well but took alot of fab work to get the body gaps even close.the pics I posted were old ones. Since then I have added smooth running boards and still finishing up fab work. The running board brakets are kinda a pain to make look good from underneath. the good thing is the Truck sits very low without even baggin it. We had to raise bed floor about 6 inches, the toeboard and trans tunnell had to be built. The good thing is the wheel base/openings are perfect.We were also able to get the blower under the hood.Hardest part is really just body panel alignment with all four fenders, runnin boards etc moving so much. If you were just building a driver it would not be hard at all. I also gained a ton of rear tire room on the rear. I have a 305/40/22 on the rear and still have room for more without even toucing the frame rails. The other good thing is the ground clearnce. The sheetmetal is only thing low. If you got air in it just enuff to drive, the lowest thing is the trans cross member and it tucked way up in the truck.

Here's my toy. I've posted progress reports on a couple of other forums:

Here are a few of the several hundred pics of the build.
