S10 Swap Spindles - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Looking at my 2wd frame, with the 4x4 rear, and the thought of using 2" spacers to get the width right in the front is something I'd rather not use, if I can get away with it.

I've been trying to research the "tall spindle swap" for the s10 front end.
Without getting into a ton of parts and pieces from various donors, the best that I've seen is using the spindles from a 'late' 90's s10 blazer for a 1 1/2" increase in width. Has anyone tried this and had any luck? I'd like to use as much of the current s10 2wd parts as possible (just rebuilt it all).

Cheers,
Ted.
