Its weird, if one of us goes to s10 forum and posts, we get bashed on. But if you come here its cool. I guess were just not a$$holes.
Anyhow, welcome and nice dime! ZQ8's on a first gen look pretty good:cool:

I disagree. Although it has changed a lot over time. I know a lot of the guys personally on there though. The Veterans on their kiss ass and really know their stuff.

I don't even own a s10 nor any mini truck. The only reason Iam on is to talk to my buddies across town, the guys have welded and machined a few things for me.
Those guys can build their own rear air suspension but can't do basic math, LOL:think:

eh you're generalizing a little too much man. I used to go there and I can do math just fine with my ti-89. :lol:

i agree. i did that long enough and then put in a stock posi unit from a **h gen f body. but now i gotta rip all that out and put in some 4.10's cuz if you notice in the pics the strips get real light real quick. that is becuse the motor tends to bog hardcore when it starts getting traction:lame:
