Re: My version of the s10 swap

I've been looking at 4 link options for the rear of the truck and airbags have been under consideration, and hauling duties make that seem more practical. The s10 leaves are nice and soft for ride, but don't do a very good job controlling my axle wrap when I use the skinny pedal, and squat quite a bit with a load in the bed.

Haha, sorry Doug....I should have accounted for those 9400 miles shouldn't I? It's been a busy year. So yes, 2 Hot Rod Power tour long hauls on the truck in the last 14 months since it's been on the road.

Yes, I'm planning my October around the MetalMeet! I hung out with Pat Brubaker at GoodGuys in July, great to catch up with him. He said that Peter will be there again, that will be fun. I'm working on figuring out what projects to bring to work on this year, Pat razzed me last year for bringing flat Willys panels to work on, so this year I'll bring something rounded. It'll either be parts for my dad's 55 Chevy PU or something for the 54 Chevy wagon I picked up earlier this year (new HRPT car, more room for the twins).

I need to get my Flickr account figured out so I can post pics again....
