Post by Jim »

Just was awarded a nice little project S-10 on Ebay. I'm picking it up tomarrow just outside D.C. All my friends say it's not like me to buy a vehicle with just pictures. But I am approaching this with an attitude that he & I can fix anything that's crap on it. :shock:

The first thing to go is the topper, I found a 02 cloth bench seat for $75 & will be replacing the mat with new carpet hopefully a better grade than whats in our Crew Cabs. :roll:

Def. a work truck but it does have an auto. It looks pretty clean for a work truck too! Nice find. What are you planing on doing with it? Def. look at the Long Travel IFS kits!



Good Luck!

Looks like a great deal. That be something I would get a son if I had one. Is that gonna be his starter truck? Perfect, not too powerful, and already has dings, but mechanically great. Perfect to learn on. LOL

Of course replace the door. I think we will do a cheepy extreme look...paint the grill & bumpers the body color, look for a body kit, 2/2 drop & ZQ8 wheels

I saw on ebay a 96 s10 already at 3k and that was only a manual and no cap! So you got a great deal and if you sell the cap, probably get atleast 500 for it. Lowered would be cool but the pre runner look is in! ;)



Great find!

Lowered would be cool...but I'd suggest 3 in instead of 2. A 2 in. drop is hardly noticeable and a 3 in. would center the wheels in the wheel well better than a 2 in. Get some nice 17's and you've got a pretty trick little truck. :thumb:

I'd say 2" drop spindles and 1" or 2" blocks. They look about right then.

Not like they were built for the maximum pothole depth.

Two orange cones came with. The Co. that owned it did underground cabling & residential Cable TV hookups. The Pres. said Comcast cut his reimbursement last year & he lost money on Res. hookup so he is now only doing the underground work (selling all small trucks). He has a like new 2001 on Ebay now that is real nice. He's a car guy one of the last items he bought on Ebay was a 1970 Chevelle for $28,000.

My son & I spent the snowy day on the truck. The neighbors must think I'm strange, :o at 9:30 this morning I put the Corvette out & brought in the crapy truck. All it needed for State Inspection was bulbs in the third brake light & the Emergency brake adjusted. We spent the rest of the day cleaning it inside & out. Tomorrow I had a windshield scheduled to be put in. I don't think they'll make it in 2 feet of snow. :shock:

I don't know. My old Jeep with the 6" lift and 33" BFG Mudders might have. It did pretty good back in that "Blizzard of '96" we got. Now my CC with no lift and the crappy stock street tread tires (half worn down no less)? Forget it. It's still sitting in the garage.



By the way, I was going to check out the Core4x4 meeting Saturday but with all the snow, I figure it got cancelled. I'm interested in joining and going on some of these rides. I may to at least get better tires before I try though.

I started from my garage (I was backed in). I put it in 4hi took aim and floored it. Fortunately, my driveway was a straight shot to the road but even so it got a little scary the way I was drifting side to side while I was trying to line up on the open gate at the end. And then there were the cedar trees on the other side of the road. I almost didn't stop in time.

Possible 2/2 Drop w/springs only, the extremes & ZQ8s are that way.



Paint the bumpers & grill shell white



For now I am enjoying seeing the gas station less often :D 26 MPG yo! :D



But the thing won't get out of it's own way...2.2 w/AT :shock:

I would recommend the drop spindles for the front. That way you will maintain the suspension travel and ride characteristics. My neighbor picked up a pair on ebay for around $100 with 2" block and u-bolt kit for the rear.

It just looks right. Not too low.



I've noticed that it is really hard to get the right drop using aftermarket springs. If you get the drop you want after a year it sags and ends up unbearably low.

If you cut or drop leafs you alter the spring rates and sacrifice ride, then you have to look forward to the future sag, too.



Spindles or drop pocket a-arms , raised rear brackets or rear blocks are the best options, IMO



As for the performance, add a good quality tuned header with a free flowing exhaust!

You could gain HP and mileage!

This truck is really bumpy riding either the rear springs are extra heavy or the shocks are super duty they are huge, it rides like their is no suspension in the rear. I may consider a softer ride spring, the truck was titled w/ a 7000 GVW in Maryland. I also leans to the drivers side even w/ an empty tank.

You are right there, a spring shop will probably need to set-up a whole new spring pack.

The front is coils , right?

IIRC, you could get the Z85 springs in the 2wd to make it Heavy Duty. That's probably what you got. Check the codes as it would be interesting to see what options you got. My suggestion is to replace the leaf springs and coils with new ones(lower ones also?) as it will probably ride much better. I know someone with drop spindles. Let me see if he still has them as he sold his s10 over a year ago.

Hope it is of some help :D



EDIT Filled in some of the blanks using the RPO search engine on the stock info page.

So if you have the Z83, that's the normal suspension. Maybe they swapped the springs out with HD ones.

The door is on the road to repair...Now it just needs to see bondo-bob & paint it. I'll do the fender when I have the door on saw horses doing the plastic work.

Finally the body is finished. I painted the lower section of the cab corner, door, fender & the drivers side bed two weeks ago, Fathers day & I painted the bumpers the body color yesterday. The drivers side bed was boogered up from it's life as a parts delivery truck. As soon as I find a image hosting place that works, (Village Photos is not working at the time of writing this).
