! sounds sweet on the off road park , keep me posted .

nyteRyda · 06-08-2009, 07:40 PM

Small update:

I started cutting my truck apart today, still cutting as I write just thought I would let you all know

BillaksBlazer · 06-08-2009, 08:06 PM

the first cut is the hardest to make. After that its easy, lets see pics of it didnt happen! lol

nyteRyda · 06-08-2009, 09:26 PM

I have to wait for my little sister to come home and upload the pictures because I dont know where her cord is for the camera, but I have pictures of most of the IFS out...update within an hour

nyteRyda · 06-08-2009, 09:55 PM

Well here are a few pics for those of you who want them, mind you the upper control arms are still in as well as upper shock mounts. We will be torching them out either tomorrow or the day after. The front diff is still in because we couldnt get one bolt out but that will happen tomorrow as well.

Torsion bars are still in, anyone have tips on those??

here are the pics:

Thats it for now, like I said there is still some stuff to cut out but we didnt start until 5pm tonight and took a break to eat, but other than that we should have an axle under it by the end of the week

Tim99Zr2 · 06-08-2009, 09:57 PM

nice.. unbolt the tbars, it should just slide out then? or a BFH.

good start

Well to start there isnt really a place behind them to hit, but I will try unbolting the keys tomorrow and see where it gets me

nyteRyda · 06-08-2009, 10:18 PM

Here is a pick of my buddies stock 4x4(blue) my truck and the truck we were had to finish before we started my SAS. That black truck is my old low rider...It now has a 3in body lift with Baja Customs stage 1 longtravel kit in the front, and a ford 8.8 spring over in the rear. Running 32x10's on crager soft 8 17's...20 inches from the ground to lowest part of the frame

dball · 06-08-2009, 10:21 PM

NICE! Your truck should look badass. What kind of bumper is on the s10?

nyteRyda · 06-08-2009, 10:24 PM

A pirate lab bumper that he ordered up

nyteRyda · 06-09-2009, 12:05 PM

Well today we start with the torches to take off the upper control arms, shock mounts, and we also still need to take the last bolt out of the front diff...pics later

nyteRyda · 06-09-2009, 08:34 PM

Alright so I got the torsion bars out was way easier after I unbolted the keys.

Also got the uppers cut off, but I only got the passenger side cleaned up before it started to rain, so tomorrow bright and early I will clean up the drivers side...

I still have to drop the front diff, which wont be so bad I think I can do it by myself. I will have some pictures up when my little sis comes home, I dont know how she uploads them...so when she gets home I will put those pics up

bubbagt57 · 06-09-2009, 08:58 PM

the front diff is very light i used a trans hi-jack but when i went to pull it off it was nothing

nyteRyda · 06-09-2009, 09:14 PM

Quote: Originally Posted by bubbagt57

yeah I guess it depends on the year if it is 95 - 97 its Iron, so mine is Iron...aluminum ones arent bad...I am just going to throw a jack under it, pull the bolts out and relieve the jack

nyteRyda · 06-09-2009, 09:16 PM

Ok pick time:

passenger side cleaned up

Drivers side cut out but not cleaned up

IFS junk pile getting bigger

So I figured I will have everything cleaned up tomorrow early, and get the axle cleaned up with new brakes and what-not...then I can start welding in my new shit!!

bubbagt57 · 06-09-2009, 10:03 PM

since yours is iron and a lil to heavy to fight with. the bracket on the right side in the 2nd pic under the UCA bracket kinda gets in the way so just stand to the side and torch it

oldskools10 · 06-09-2009, 10:12 PM

lovin the pics . keep'em coming . what are you planin on for the rear ?? not sure if i want to use the ten bolt and regear or just hunt down a 8.8 that has the gears i want . any one have any in put on what 8.8 to use ?

wrekd · 06-09-2009, 10:25 PM

Your front diff shouldn't be iron unless its a 5-speed. The 5-speeds and the Zr2's are the only trucks that got iron front diffs from the factory.

I am going with an 8.8 out of an explorer with 4.10s I found it would be cheaper in the long run to invest in an 8.8 instead of fighting with the weak 10 bolt s10 rear

Ok thats even better I dont remember where I read that but i guess that works even better I will have that dropped and the drivers side cleaned up tomorrow then I guess its time to start welding in new shit....Hey Wrekd you have any good pictures of the placement of the Sky shock hoops? Just so I can get an idea on placement

wrekd · 06-10-2009, 03:05 AM

This is about the best pic I have

nyteRyda · 06-10-2009, 11:45 AM

Well I dont know if much else is going to get done today, my buddy has work and he is the one who can weld...that isnt my game so I dont go there...lol...but I am going to try and drop the diff today and clean up the drivers side.....just an update

nyteRyda · 06-10-2009, 01:47 PM

Ok drivers side all cleaned up and got the diff out, which was pretty easy. I am going to run to the chevy dealer today and get the oil filter relocating thing...I have the parts number thanks to Wreckd.

Oh and I got my new front rims today Crager Soft 8's...they will look nice on the new jeep axle...lol...

Anyway now I just have to wait for my buddy and his welder to put the new shit in!!

wrekd · 06-10-2009, 02:18 PM

Good deal man. If I didn't have class today, Id take a ride over a BS with ya a lttle bit

Was the front diff aluminum??

Maybe sometime next week I'll get in touch with ya. Im leaving for a fishing trip tomorrow to the Allegheny River for 4 days. But I definitely wanna check it out. We'll be the only ones in the whole area with SFA s-10's as far as I know

Well my buddy is supposedly doing one on his 1st gen. FI305, TH350, fullsize 10 bolts, on 35's. So maybe they'll be 3 of us by the end of the summer.

Actually Im gonna call that fvcker to see if he made any progress

Yeah hopefully I will atleast have the front axle under the truck next week...it all depends on when my welder shows up...lol

wrekd · 06-10-2009, 02:51 PM

I hope ya have it under there too. Then its just all little shit after that.

nyteRyda · 06-10-2009, 03:21 PM

Well I am only doing the front right now, so until I pick up my ford axle its only going to be a 2wd...I am hoping by July I will have it all put together and able to be wheeled

Also got the uppers cut off, but I only got the passenger side cleaned up before it started to rain, so tomorrow bright and early I will clean up the drivers side... I still have to drop the front diff, which wont be so bad I think I can do it by myself. I will have some pictures up when my little sis comes home, I dont know how she uploads them...so when she gets home I will put those pics up
