Re: Bartmans AD-S10 Chassis Swap

yeah bartman nailed it. the innner fenders hold alot of the weight, on the s10s they need cut to fit because of the control arms, so you loose alot of mounting space as opposed to the stock frame. the rad support bolts to the inner fenders and then to the xmember of your making, so that really stiffens things up. I also ran a piece of angle or flatstock, cant remember, from the bottom or my grill back to the rad xmember, its just a little extra support. I didn't run the radiator splash apron, I dont think a lot of people even run those.
