Finished lowering my S10 4/5. It received Spohn tubular upper and lower control arms, DJM drop 2" springs, BellTech Nitro shocks, all new GM steering components (minus the box itself) with Ride Tech billet tie-rod adjuster sleeves up front.
In the back it received Summit 3" drop leaf springs, 2" cast iron blocks and Ground Force shocks to finish it off.

Then last week I got new wheels and tires put on the S10. It's now on US Mags Ramblers. I got them wrapped in Nitto NT555 G2 rubber. It actually rides better with a 4/5 drop than it ever did with the 2/3 drop.

It's a 2002,4cyl.,5spd.
I'm putting a new head on it.

Shop truck! Leaving the logos on? Usually a company will take that off. I think it's a cool theme.

A year ago, I think to the day, I sold the '89 S10. 4.3, 700r4, a/c and power everything! Only had 70,000 miles too! Used it as a DD for about 2 years but it was smaller than o preferred and I really wish it would have had the 4cyl/5-speed, because it never got good gas mileage like I'd hoped.

Special-k,
No, I took the logos off.
It's required here,in Arkansas .
Got the truck going,and I love it.
It's my DD,and I'm slowly doing the body,etc.
I now have 3200 miles on it,and other than the lifter chatter,it runs great,and gets great mileage.

I like it. Something I've always wanted to do.

kaptinkafeen · 03-12-2018, 10:50 AM

Any members have a few pics of '94 and earilier (first gen) extended cab 4 x 4 (s10 or s15?) Did a quick search using google and pin trest and couldn't find too many images of stock or close to stock rides.
Thanks

In the interest of helping make the S-10 subforum a little more lively, here's my "sporty beater"- not the clearest photo but on the other hand you can't tell how rusty it really is. The cab corners and one of the rockers have been kinda tough for a while but just in the last year the rust is flaking the paint off the box above the wheelwells. So, before a lot longer, some decisions will need to be made- whether I have a patch job of sorts done, or just keep on driving til the rust claims yet another one.

I think it was originally a fleet or business vehicle- it has the proper ZR-2 sticker on the firewall, but no decals on the box- instead, at some point it got a pinstripe and freehand "Z-r2"- which I kinda like.

It's a fun little truck to hammer around with- though a 5 speed would be even more fun- and in a great many ways a lot handier than the full-size 3/4 ton, but I do see why little trucks aren't as popular- if I get just 500 pounds of feed at the co-op and climb in the driver's seat, that is basically the payload. In fact, it's a little sprung toward the driver's side now, after I tried getting 700 pounds of feed and myself home.

**special-K** · 09-15-2017, 11:21 PM

Damn you Photobucket.If you were 1/2 human I'd kick your halfass!

Here's my friend's Sonoma I've been driving the last couple weeks. I really like it. Handles like a sports car and he pepped the banger up a bit. It's a 5spd

I know this was posted over a year ago, but I just saw this and want to say that is cool as can be. You got me thinking.

Here's a pic I saw and saved

Just call me Sean · 09-01-2020, 05:07 PM
