Re: The NEW Arkansas thread
Hey guys, i'm Brian. Pretty new to the s10 scene, but i've always loved the trucks. I'm up in Rogers, so if anyone would like to help me with my project, i need all the help i can get. I just got a 92 4.3 single cab shortbed. But anyway, i just wanted to introduce myself and say thanks to everyone in advance for all the help this site's gonna give me.
p.s. the first mod is gonna be a tricky one for me. swapping out coils and leafs with ones from a 4 banger model. |

Re: The NEW Arkansas thread
Welcome to our family man. Throw up some pics of the ride. And any particular reason you want to switch out coils and leafs with a 2.5 truck?

Re: The NEW Arkansas thread
The 4 banger coils under a v6 will drop the nose. Its cheapass but he said he already had the coils.

Re: The NEW Arkansas thread
Its actually not all that bad. Lowers the nose about one inch and doesn't change the ride too much. Now 4 banger springs under a v8 is a diff story ![]() |

Re: The NEW Arkansas thread
As far as I know, if you can get in the airport you can buy it.
Depends on the security there, but Ive been to our local airport before and havent had to tell anybody anything |

Re: The NEW Arkansas thread
Running high octane gas in something that doesn't have the compression ratio for it is about worthless.

I agree, waste of money. I was just telling them you could get it. We've gotten it for our drag cars many years ago |

Re: The NEW Arkansas thread
i love google... holy shit this stuff is cheap... i figured it would be hella expensive being aircraft grade shit...
looking at replacing most of my frame with a fabricated one of chromoly 4130 tube and boxed, very light compared to mild steel and way stronger, only bad thing is i'll have to ship this in from california still working on some geometry issues with suspension and steering... other than that not much else is being a problem, anyone know a place that can make custom brake lines? or at least standard fittings for GM 5/16 fittings in decent lengths? |

Re: The NEW Arkansas thread
hey guys, I know what i'm doing with my center console, just gotta figure out how to do it. I'm swapping in a floor shifter/console from a 2nd gen. I think it'll look good. I got a question though. Does anyone know anyone who can sketch me up a rendering or something??? i'd like to have an idea of what it's gonna look like.

Re: The NEW Arkansas thread
Damn I've been on 3 or 4 forums and found the arkansas guys and no one has seen this thing. Most of the fullsize forums are telling me to stay away anyways so I've given up hope on that one.
Owell thanks for the heads up. |
