Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
Just finished reading your build. Very cool. I think it's cool you bought it from original owner.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
I love the metalwork, it is amazing what a bead roller can do in the right hands.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
Layedout,
I wanted to see if you can elaborate on what you did for the water temp sensor? Maybe you can share some pics too if you have them? Will the original sensor and gauge work if I can find an adapter to plug it into the passenger side head? Thanks in advance! |

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
So its a common issue to have the tie rod do that? I thought i had done something wrong. I just used washers to make the diff. I got a new gearbox im going to put on (steering is very loose) and i got the tierods off the truck with it. Figured i would swap it all out then.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
Ordered me some mobsteel wheels today. Hope to have them in a few weeks. ordered 20x9 for the front, and 20x11 for the back, Thinking about painting them off white/cream color.
![]() Same offset as these just white, not rusted. Hope they fit!

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
What size tires will you be running? I am on the fence between running 18s and 20s- curious how they will fit!
