Re: S10 Frame Swap on 47-53 - Would you do it again?
I guess i gotta ask what intricate work I talked about?
shortening the frame is pretty standard if someone start withs the wrong wheelbase; use a longbed and its even easier than the 2wd swap.
moving the motor back wont be an issue for most people, using a v8 does it automatically, just need a trans mount.
the front bumper mount I make now will work just fine on a 4x4 chassis with a little grinding where the swaybar goes.
I think someone could do a 4x4 s10 faster now than it even took you to do the 84 shortbed swap. I have made mounts for those C10 swaps (and jeep J10 swaps, and dodge 2500 swaps, etc) and they are taller because of the kickup under the back of the cab. doesnt hurt on a 4x4 swap, free lift kit haha.
