Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
This little truck was given to me by my dad's friend after my first truck was rear ended and totaled. It was originally a 4 cylinder 4-speed manual Plain Jane truck.

Engine/Drivetrain Modifications:
Swapped old blown 2.5L 4cylinder engine to a 1983 2.8L V6. .030" over. mild cam. 1.6 roller tipped rockers. Hedman 3/4 length headers 1.5" primaries. Edelbrock Performer 4V intake. Holley 390cfm 4bbl carb. Remote mount oil filter. External engine oil cooler. 5 speed and driveshaft from a 1992 S10. LockRight locker in the 10 bolt. 7.625" ring gear with 4.10 gears. T/A Performance aluminum diff girdle. Dual 2.25" glasspack exhaust.

Suspension Modifications:
Edelbrock Performer IAS shocks at all 4 corners. (I highly reccommend them!) Cheapo Traction Bars. (damn wheelhop.)

Wheels/Tires Modifications:
33x12.50-15 Mudders on 15x10 chrome rims out back with 235/75R15 all terrain tires on matching 15x8 rims up front.

Interior/Exterior Modifications:
homemade 2.5" body lift and trimmed front fenders to fit front tires. trimmed rear wheelwells to fit mudders. triple A-pillar gauge pod (Speedometer, engine oil temp, air-fuel ratio). Front grille and tow hooks from a '91 Blazer.

Future Modifications:
LS swap. Who doesn't love a V8 S10? Read more ยป

at work after a mud bog the night before. the front tires become ski's with a 2wd truck with a locker. I drove around an International Scout on 35's through the mud pit. I was in 2nd gear. speed said 70mph. 6,500RPMs.
