So I'm planning to turn my 87 2wd S10 in a rock crawler to replace my 14 Jeep Wrangler.
Initially my idea is to put in:
- a ls 6.0 lq9, sourced 04 Cadillac ESV whole
-Ford super duty front Dana 60, sourced
- 4l80e, sourced
-FF corporate 14, sourced
-203/205 doubler (driver drop) sourced but I have to build the doubler. If that's too long, I may have to do an Atlas
-either 3/4 link parallel or radius arms in the front
- probably a double triangulated 4 link in the rear
-Bob the S10 bed
-around a 130" wheel base on 42"s
-definitely will be plating/boxing in the S10 frame
Definitely a huge job but we'll see how it goes. Looking forward to utilizing solutions y'all have already worked out.
I'll take any ideas, tips and tricks y'all have to offer.
