Fitting 37's on the solid axle swapped S10! Setting up Bump stops, Shocks and trimming fenders!

- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- In this video I am in the final stages of getting the Chevy S10 Rock lander ready for its maiden voyage to Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah. We fully assemble the rear 9" axle, set up the brakes, hydro assist. Install the ARB air compressor for the Yukon Zip locker. Trim the front an rear fenders to fit the 37's. We also wrap up the front suspension and get this truck on all fours and get it running. This video we go from a truck completely on jack stands to running and moving under its own power. Will I get it finished and make it to EJS this year?

You muddy butts did a lot of good work on that S10. I don't see a lot of four-door ones anymore. Looks nice. I may have to watch more of your videos.

Awesome bro.
I have 22s on 34.5 nitto on 3" body lift . No torsion keys. 2"Rear shackles
Still rubbing need to cut more like you did. Tnx keep up d vids
It's crazy how fast you put this together. Great job.
Thanks, it has been a busy 6 weeks
Man this is my favorite build on RUclips right now! You make great videos man!
Thanks 👊🏻 i appreciate it!
I'm glad to hear where you're gittin your great parts. I'm building 3 rigs that I need parts for. Dandahermit
Awesome work I'm following intently as I am considering aborting my whole jeep build and going this route
So what axles did you use?? Are they Dana 44s?? What did the front axle come off?? Dandahermit. Is your 3point link from Barns?? Dan
Ford 9” rear, high pinion 44 up front. Barnes4wd 3 link kits.
My Metric-ton Comanche has a Dana 44 rear and a Dana 30 front. Would like a wagoneer front Dana 44 but will likely settle in the 30 with Spartans front and rear. Most my driving is off road. Dandahermit.
Alot of good info here WOW! BTW sorry you didn't make it to EJS weekend! 👎
Thanks 👊🏻
All my vehicles are built with mostly junkyard parts. I only buy new stuff as needed and I buy oem so I can find replacement parts easy
Ps I'm old ( 80)and on so sec so low budget. Dandahermit
Very kool. Shit happens. I want to know more bout your axles . Source. Is that a quadra link set up in front?? Or wut? Dandahermit
Thanks, 3 link front and rear.
Sucks you missed your goal. Did you go tag along with anyone? Looking awesome. Me being a yj guy. Links are cool, but the s10 has a pretty arched rear leafs and are spring under. Might have been easier to just do an axle flip and gain the 6 inches and link it later. But im hard core leafs of the poors 😂
Sorry you weren’t able to get the S-10 done in time, now you can still finish it, and give it a proper shake down. Always next year. ✌🏻
Yup, lots of other opportunities. Always Good to have a proper shake down.
So far looks great.. I'd like to mount 33s to 36s on my Comanche without a tall lift?? I live up a trail similar to yours in the mountains. Just wand ground clearance and traction to come n go. Straight utility. I have a Toyota monster but don't want to depart from the OEM body. It's a collector 87metric-ton. Dandahermit
I used jt springs for my liberty sas
So sorry you didn’t make it, but as you say the money saved will get used in the build so not all is lost. Everything you’ve done has been spot on will be great to see it out wheeling. 😎👍🏽
Thanks 👊🏻
Just wondering what is the lift height on this truck? 6inch? I’m planning to do a SAS on my 2001 sonoma but leaf spring suspension. Great job by the way awesome video once again
Thanks, I can’t really say the lift height, but the frame is 23” from the ground. It currently has 6” Jeep Tj springs in the front and stock Jeep gladiator springs in the back.
You were so close! You'll get it, man! I was in the same spot with my rig last year. Almost done. I hope to see you out on the trails with my Solid Axle Swapped Hummer H3 on 37s.
Absolutely 👊🏻
Bummer I was looking for your truck in Moab Saturday and all the way home on the highway. Deadlines are alway great motivation. Keep up the hard work , hope to see you on the trails
Haha, thanks. Maybe next year
Anytime need a hand I’m always around! Thanks for the kind words
I will definitely take you up on that🤟🏻
Nice work! Great looking welds!
Thanks 👊🏻
you could make a coil retainer on the axle side and a locator cone or even just a tube it rides over that lets the coil unseat at full droop
Was about to say the same thing. Very common in the Rover world. On mine I actually use a secondary small spring as my upper retainer that lets the main spring pull away from the pocket then pulls it back into place. Sorta hard to describe but works well enough.
I'm going to be starting this on a 2000 Jimmy, whats your overall height?? I'm a disabled Veteran and can't climb very high (I think I'm gong to be building a step into my rock slider)
My frame height is about 23”. It is as low as I can get it with 37’s.
@@MuddyBeards4X4 thank you for letting me know. I'm fairly tall. I hope 2 foot is the highest I have to go.
torque seal and loctite everything. saves so much headache
Been 2 weeks so you must be building a doubler for it.haha
I know it’s little and prolly sounds dumb but it’s odd to me to see it with a ford bolt pattern instead of the infamous Chevy 6x5.5
Great build in a short time.
Thanks 🤟🏻
Awesome build !!!!
Thanks 👊🏻
Great videos Kelly! Loving this build, hope to one day do something like this myself. I wanna start learning to weld with flux core.
Thanks 👊🏻
Great job. Sometimes you fall short of your goals, but that just means your tried and learned how to do it better next time. Love the overland build with something that is not like $40,000. Thanks for making great affordable content.
Thanks👍🏻
Man how much to do mine
I see rub marks on your inner fender... is the wheel/tire going to clear those shocks?😮
That was from the stock setup. These axles are way wider than stock, and don’t come anywhere near the shocks or frame.
outstanding!
Bummer you missed your mark. I am looking forward to seeing what this beast does!
Thanks 👊🏻
It may not have been done on time. But it's turning out to be a sweet truck
Thanks 👊🏻
Awesome how you did it in a relatively smaller garage.
Thanks
