The G body components are identical to S10, GM used these parts to design the S10. The crossmember and center link are narrower on the S10 than the G body. I don't think the newer vette wheels like you are talking about will work. There is too much positive offset on them, thus you would need a 4inch spacer or more in the front (and that's just crazy). You may also need a spacer even with the 4X4 axle as Danimal had to do.
