        3.) I dont think the wheels would break off but after time it will show wear and tear since the s-10 was made for more of the get around town with wood in the back deal of a truck. They do make control arm kits and hub kits on-line somewhere so you can camber out an s-10 with no issues BUT it for an s-10 with a bad setup under it.
        4.) Nope the Core support is the same. You have to watch tho. Not sure on the specific years but in 1997 is also when they changed the core support in the front ends on the s10/sonoma/bravada. You will have to read more on that cause it really all depends of the years of the frontend and core supports.
        5.) Yeah sorry to say but it has the goofy 1-1/2 din setup BUT you and do a quick swap to double if needed.
        2) wrong, all s10's use the same suspension setup, that includes the box style first gens
        blazers have different hubs and spindles as well as different leaf springs but the control arms are still the same.
        3) the only reason the wheel would break off if the balljoints are binding and under too much stress, an easy way to avoid this is to get power performance balljoints that have increased travel, they will also drop you another 1/2"
        4) if it's a 94-97 bravada you will have to use a 94-97 core support, if it's a 98+ then you will have to use a 98+ core support, all front ends are swappable though in between those years.
        5) 98+ bravadas have a double din setup as well as 2002.5+ blazers

        watchout for rust in the rockers and bed sides

                        Ive got the Belltech 3" drop leafspring kit for the rear. How much lower can you go without having to notch it?

                        • @Kaidotech. You can get 4'' Blocks for the back. That is what i have in the back of mine but on stock leafs. 3'' Leafs are next spring for me.

                                Ive rebuilt my 351 so many times cause of my fuck ups when i was 15-17. How every i will not be rebuilding the z22 thats in it. Not worth it. KA24ET swap or maybe a v8 or v6 swap.

                                Right now looks like i might be getting ethier an e30 or a diesel truck.
