Re: Doing something different..

Anybody that hasn't been on this board long, or never been to the nats or homecoming has no idea how many levels a thread can take.

Just waiting for a downpipe bitch slip to show up. I also heard Brian Green got in an accident.

BAM!!!

.............could it be a sign that the Ty is fine?


I have very little poetic abilities. The above was merely coincidental :tup:

One more bites the dust making the rest of our TY's worth more. Well, except mine since its a pos.

Re: Doing something different..

Serious off-road vehicle and the cladding do not mix. If you're just going to make it into a mall cruiser then you'll be fine but as soon as you hit some real trails, the cladding will be torn up. Are you building it just for show? If you really want something that wheels ditch the IFS and go solid axle up front. The small 7.5" rear won't like big tires either and you're better off uprading that too. I must of broke my 8.5" 3 times before I went with a 11" 14 bolt and Dana 60. Big tires usually require you to get the Sawzall out.

IMO, you're much better off getting a normal S-10 Blazer and hacking that. Stay away from carbs if you plan to wheel.

I currently have a full size Blazer (with BBC and 1 tons on 38's) and have done the shows, its been in a mag, but its so hard to keep the body looking nice with full custom made steel bumpers and rocker protection. Been to Moab several times and many difficult trails here in Colorado.

Re: Doing something different..

Those wheels and tires wont fit fit a Rough Country 2" suspension lift. I dont think they have leaf springs for Jimmy/Blazers. looks like a nice kit for the truck in the background. lol

Re: Doing something different..

Didn't think there was a Rough Country lift for a 1st gen S10....Something smells fishy, why mod the Ford anyways, just junk it.

Re: Doing something different..

Kit doesn't even show leaf springs on the site ... ?

And the 2wd only had rear add a leafs ... which those aren't.

Make sure you get a video when you boost it off the line .... I've never seen two axles break at the same time ...
