Re: Help Please - 4x4 S10 swap questions
i think we are getting farther afield...
layinrocker did an s10 swap on a 2wd frame. he did an LS swap on a SY/TY. neither needed the transfer case moved back, which will hit the torsion bar crossmember after only a couple inches. his recommendation to use coilovers is in line with that problem though, but coilover kits are pretty expensive, especially when compared to just buying a 2wd frame. if you want awd, and you want to move the motor back, a coilover kit is what you want.
one of the guys using my kit moved the crossmember back and used silverado torsion bars which are longer, so I dont know if that works yet but I am watching.
if you want to switch your 4x4 frame to 2wd, you can take apart the cv joints but the bearings are probably due for replacement anyway, and I think the 98+ 2wd bearing will fit the earlier frame.
