C4 Suspension Conversion

Anyone know of a kit for a C4 suspension on to an S10 frame? Or will we have to make everything by hand. I know there is a kit from flat out for the stock frame but they don't have it for the S10. Thanks for any help.

From what i see your on your own. C4 is much wider you will need to fab your own stuff.

Seems like you're creating alot of extra work for yourself- if you are going to use the C4, why not just keep the stock frame?

Re: C4 Suspension Conversion

Well the stock frame we would need to box in because we all know it wasn't built to handle 400hp. But that is not a problem, boxing it in would be no worse than having to fab up the brackets for the S10 frame. I was just wondering if anyone had put the C4 Independent suspension under a S10 to get away from the leaf springs but not going full coil overs. Thanks for the input guys I appreciate it.

Get the Nerd Rods Frame. All C4 suspension, weld it yourself, bolt on frame.
