S10 frame for 50 chevy pickup

[erichwaslike]

very nice stuff, but wont the back end be a lil bouncy with the shocks at that angle, the look like they are at about 70% or less effective angle? just wondering

[Slammy]

That pic with the shock on there is all the way down, the angle is better at ride height. If anything it will probably be too stiff cause of the bags we are running

Keep it up, you do great work!

Shes gone! Did not dehump the control arms cause he is probably gonna run tube arms and he is doing the shock mounts once the body is on.

thats to put a shortbed on it right? if thats the case it wont work for me as i have a longbed

From what I understand, there are a bunch of variations of the S10 frame you can use: short bed/short cab, long bed/short cab, short bed/extended cab, extended bed/extended cab. You take a tape measure and measure what you are needing, from center of wheel to center of wheel, then look for the corresponding S10 that will fit those measurements. Remember, my '53 GMC is a longbed as well, so I feel your pain. I told the wife the 610 MUST be done first, before any of this is going to transpire.
