Post Up Your 6.5

Your S-10 is awesome!!! I don't think you even need paint on that truck IMHO. I would love to solid axle my truck. Need to get some funds together first. I want to go D60 front with 7" total lift on 36's.
 
Some great looking trucks here! Here's some pics and the new ones are in the photo album.

Some pics of mine, cleaned up (which doesn't happen as often as it should) and working it



Tim, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you put an 8 lug Full Floater on your rig? I thought I remember seeing that as one of the upgrades you did....
 
I doubt if anyone will get any ideas from mine, but here it is.
You'll have to excuse the colors, I want to get everything finished and tested before I paint it.

That is one badass truck you built there. I love the bagged front end and 4-link front and rear. Are you running panhard bars? Or is it triangulated?

Wow, wow, and wow.

Nicely done, -I have a lot of appreciation for that much work. There ain't another one like it, -that's for sure!
 
Thanks for the compliments guys, it helps make all of the time that I've spent on it worth it.

It is actually air ride all the way around, you just can't see the rear ones due to where I mounted them. The front is running a panhard bar so I could eliminate bump steer and the rear is triangulated all that I could with the weird setup I did, but it seems to be working fine without any side to side movement. Here is a video of me playing with the air-ride and a little bit of the rear suspension setup.

It's alot of fun. I just wanted to make it efficient, somewhat powerfull, ride good, rockcrawl good, and be able to safely load my quad in the bed. I just got a little carried away with it.
 
Heres mine, this is why us 2wd guys hate wet grass.:mad2:
The 4 bald tires didnt help, the 484 popped it out.
