I just got off work and have no urge to go back out into the hot to check my parts pile but the more i look at it the more i think those dont look like my stock spindles. Ive got a set of stock control arms and spindles behind my shed. Once I cool off ill go take a peak at them. THe 80s g bodys (monte carlos, grand prix, cutlass etc) all used the same spindles control arms and brakes as an s10. Alot of guys use the tubular g body uppers they make for race cars on s10 with zero trouble. But after looking at these pics something makes me think that front clip might be from a larger car(maybe b body) but before i go throwing a monky wrench in my thought process let me go check out my old stock front end components to be sure, ill get back with something later tonight

EDIT: i found this pic in the link in my sig, its the best ive got at the moment, but my stock control arms seem to be open in the center around the shock tower/stud where as those have just a circle to get to it
