The GMC version of the S10 is called a Sonoma. The GMC Sierra is full size pickup truck. You might consider installing a General Motors 1980s generation g-body front clip, that is what I am installing on my truck. If those are not readily available to you, you might want to consider an IFS/MustangII kit sold by many different vendors.

No they are not the same trucks, the gmc sierra is a full size truck and the track width is to wide for the AD truck. The gmc sonoma should be what you are looking for, if you are looking at gmc's version of the s-10.

S-10, S-15, Sonoma, Isuzu Hombre, the xtreme and if so inclined even the Gmc Syclone were all based on GM's S truck chasis. Also while they are not necesarily right for an AD truck, there was the s-10 blazer, s-15 jimmy (SUV's which have a short wheel base, but I have seen people use them), and the most recent version the Chevy colorado/GMC canyon (which as I understand it are supposed to have a track width to wide for the AD truck but I see people using Dakota frames under them so I don't see how they are to wide myself and have never actually measured them myself, but throwing it out there)

Hope this helps and happy hunting.

thank you , i was asking as i saw one advertised locally and thought it may have been worth looking at. There is a severe shortage of donor vehicles in England
