Welcome to the Planet.. Looks like a Badass truck...

[spideyjected]

Welcome to the planet! My truck started out as a father son project. But my step son decided pretty early on that "this isn't his thing", so now it's pretty much just my project. Ah well, I tried.

Thanks everybody for all the welcome's

No I don't have that kind of money I have two kids in collage so I am on a budget. I had it narrowed 3 inch on drivers side has going to use a junk yard axle until they wanted 80 bucks for a used one so bought a new one from summit for 100 bucks took out the over load spring and used a 3 inch cast iron lowering blocks and welded a set of old traction bars to the bottom of the spring plates I have had a few 1.6 60 foot times

Welcome to the Planet! That is one sweet S10! So, why mycamaros? Have more than the 80 in zztop's signature?

[ZZ_TOP]

I had the impression that my dad was not gonna join the planet so i was advertising the Tim's s10, lol. Next season i will be making 1/8 mile passes with it.

Sorry to hear that. I think I have him hooked pretty good after him riding with me on a few 12 sec passes he is telling me what I'm doing wrong, imagine that. I have raced dirt bikes to the rookie experience @ Lowes motor speedway and I can't even remember how to do a burn out. lol
I guess I knew it all at 14 too..:3gears:

Welcome to the Plant. Hows the 8.8 holding up? Just installed one under mine.
Ok I guess only made a few good passes and tore out the posi broke off the tabs on the steel plates between the clutches.. have only cruised around town a few times with the spool in there.

[Majormotion53]

Sorry to hear that. How bout that spool, mini or full?

[mycamaros]

Just a mini spool I traded the broke posi carrier to a buddy of mine for a open one. ZZ did the first burn out with it. I was going to get a set of homemade lift bars off another s10 site but he don't make them for the 8.8 with 3 1/4 in axle tubes.

[Majormotion53]

Going to have to Fab one up myself? Thanks
