In today's video, we'll be fully diving into my new S10 "Restomod" series! First thing on the agenda is a complete re-do of the suspension. Everyone's feedback on the project in the last episode was taken into consideration and I very much appreciate it! I'll be incorporating many of your ideas throughout this series to create one sweet truck, including a mildly built 350 small block. There's still a lot to figure out, so let's take it one thing at a time. In this video, I'll be getting the entire rear end of the truck sorted. Rebuild, lower and enhance. It's going to be awesome!

“I hope the jimmy gets wrapped up”😂
Steven Crellin 😁😁😁😁
Awwww man, I set myself up good for that one LOL.
10:45 that thing sounds nasty, can’t wait to hear the V8
Man, I've been up to date on your projects on facebook but it's been an eternity since I sae your videos. I remember you filming cars at dealerships and then getting a better camera all the way to buying the Charger and getting married. Now this and your house, it's been a journey and I'm very glad for you. Keep the great work!!
I 100% agree with a 350 swap 👍🏻🤘🏻
It's going to be soooo sick!
I did a frame off restoration on a 66 Short bed Chevy PU back in the day when I was about your age. Your vids brings back a lot of fun memories. It's is such a satisfying feeling when you put the new hardware back together when it's all shiny and new. There was no such thing as YT back then, haha! hell the internet hadn't even been invented yet. Your doing it right by getting sponsors, good luck, I look forward to seeing how this S10 comes out in the end.
Thanks so much Tim, that means a lot. I am very fortunate to be where I'm at with all of this. I still have sooo much to learn, but that's half the fun right? I really appreciate the support and encouragement!!
Normal people: roasting marshmallows
Kyle: roasting bushings 🔥
Bushing smoke...Don't breathe this!!
Do s blazer bumper. My friend put one on his s10 and it looked really good
Thanks for the insight!!
Good to see you Kyle hope the house and everything else is going to your standards it’s always a pleasure to watch your channel
Thank you so much Lonnie!
Blazer bumper looks good. Also black trim would look nice. The black fender flares would look good on it to.
When you change it to a 350 V8 you should change the “4.3 FUEL INJECTION” badges to the “8 350” or the “350”. Or you could make custom ones such as “5.7 V8”.
Can't wait for the 350 swap
I did the blazer bumper and tailgate conversion and it looks really cool, i definitely recomend both mods
I will probably do the blazer tailgate on the crew cab project, but the bumper conversion on this truck is the way to go 👍
It spits flames!
You should do this build in the O'Reilly's parking lot so we don't forget who sponsors you.
Not going to lie. Since ive started watching your vids I got really big into s10s. I recently went out and bought a 1982 single cab 7 1/3ft box s10 that just so happens to be the 182nd s10 ever built. Thanks for all of the inspiration. Love the vids. Keep it up man!
I really like the engine choice.
Man I’d love to see a blazer bumper conversion that would be cool!
i had a 1987 S10 4x4 with a 2.8v6 5 speed manual trans. i miss that truck it served me well for over 150,000 miles
Very cool!
Im running belltech performance shock and lowering kit on my 92 ranger love it improved the handling and steering of the truck
Glad to hear it!
You cracked me up hammering out those bushings! You knocked that one of out there with some extreme authority
Blazer bumper would be a nice touch, it would still look oem but be something different. Also you should look into an explorer 8.8 rear end it’s a common s10 upgrade and will give you disc rear brakes and a stronger rear axle.
::goes on Craigslist looking for an S10::
LOL and so it begins!
It''s official.
You're now S10Kyle.
Lol yep
I suppose so LOL
Blazer bumper for sure!!!
Do a disk brake covrtion and a roof sun visor full led conversation can lights and do a vid on that truck with chris fix of how to do gears
Dude you got me wanting a S10 man !!!
They're fun little trucks!
Not a comment about this particular project but I think it would be really awesome to see you do an old Taurus SHO restoration. They are awesome forgotten sleepers and there is a large community of owners and enthusiasts. I have 1991 and have enjoyed every second of trying to restore it to its original condition. The Yamaha engine makes it a thrill to drive especially being a 5 speed in a sedan
I appreciate the suggestion! That would be very unique!
If you were to want some more payload capacity, I'd say add a leaf from the factory spring you removed to the lowering leaf springs. There is the issue that it will obviously add some height, but I think you can handle that one way or another.
As for the swap, will you keep it carbed, or will you go with fuel injection, either through TBI or port injection?
I thought about that when I was installing the springs. If anything, maybe adding the lower spring, I think maybe that is what's called the helper spring, I'm not sure. I don't plan on carrying anything meaningful in this truck, but the option is always there, especially if the rear end ends up being too low after the 350 swap. I'm sticking with a 650 cfm carb. I've owned many older vehicles with carbs so I'm used to them. I want to be as simple as possible with this truck.
I'm building a 98 s10,and have an older 350 that will probably be going in it as well!
I've always been a fan of color matched bumpers. I think it would look good on that truck, if it's possible.
If you do the true dual exhaust make sure to get an x-pipe it’ll help performance also as to the rear bumper thoughts of deleting it and having a smooth rear end? Just a simple piece of sheet metal.
Explorer 8.8 is the perfect upgrade for your rear. Plus you get disc brakes.
Agree but the bolt pattern would be wrong
I see that's a pretty common upgrade, not sure what is involved with it though, aside from having to work around the bolt pattern issue
@@saabkyle04 literally bolt on. As far as the lug pattern just find a set of dual drilled wheels. Or an adapter
Fantastic as always!
I really love the engine choice. Looking forward to the development of this project.
Thanks!!
@@saabkyle04 You're welcome!
I think an oem bumper will do good! that or a blazer one!
Great video man!
Thanks so much!
I’ve seen a few blazer rear bumpers on the trucks. Looks pretty sharp if your not wanting to run a roll pan
For sure, I appreciate it!
I just love S10 with me there's only S10 and that's a nice one
Blazer bumper conversion would be cool!
LMAO the computer screen saver, I caught that :P
AWESOME, I was wondering if someone would LOLOLOL.
i love that body style S!0 with the extra cab
Be the fist c10 with rear defuser it's not hard to make one it can even be done fairly cheap and have awsome results
Loving the build so far great work
Thank you!
you will have to swap the rear end out .....i went with a ford 9in but i have a lsxt56 500hp+ in a drag set up it you have anything close to 350 or more most go for the ford 8.8 but its alot of work .....12 bolt is another option but in the end its all what you want to spend and how much you beat on it.
Can't wait to hear the V8!
Put an S-10 bumper. The chrome looks way better with the red
Don't worry too much about filming 240 content, we know it's a bear of a project. Also, it's not like you're not releasing other great content, so no worries!
Thank you! Wish everyone understood that!
Do a Blazer bumper! Fill the holes smooth and get it painted or rechrome it. That in itself could be a video with rechroming.
I don't know anyone around me that does rechroming, but I did think about that! If anything, I'll probably just keep a "stock" look by refurbishing the impact strip or trying to track down a new one.
@@saabkyle04 you could paint the bumpers satin black. That'd give you a chance to weld the holes in if you wanted to go that route. I remember seeing an NOS Blazer rear bumper strip for like $200. But I think rockauto or lmc has them cheaper.
He never blinks
I'll be honest, I was surprised you didn't do a disck conversion in the back.
COOL S10 Restomod Ep.2
Nice truck .
You've got the crew cab s10, go the opposite way with it, single cab short box with an LS or a 350 maybe
use a blazer bumper
My 4.3 straightpiped sounds ok. Idle sounds really good. Can defentitly tell it's a v6 when you rev it higher though.
Yeah man, I'm sure with some pipes on it it's better than just being wide open. The higher RPMs like you said is where the difference really comes out.
Once that 350 goes in, it'll make the "S" in S-10 stand for sleeper!
*Fuzzy Dice projects has entered the chat* I would watch his videos on V8 S10, although he had to rebuild his 350!
I liked the video and subscribed to the channel and turned on the post notifications bell so I don’t miss out on the videos
On bumpers, check out LMC Truck. They're great on better than OEM parts for GM, Ford or Dodge.
No one carries repro rear bumpers for S10s, only '91-'94 S10 Blazers and they're a different style than the '83-'90 bumpers.
Keep the stock bumper just modify it to fit closer.
Looks great already, great job Kyle! I want a project just like that.
Definitely a blazer bumper. I was wanting to do that soon on my 92 so it would be helpful
Sounds good bud!
For the rear end you should do a ford 8.8 conversion
How do you work around the different length and bolt pattern? I need to do some research, seems like a pretty common upgrade.
Seriously need an update on your house soon!
We took a break on it, should be picking back up soon. I'll keep everyone posted when the time is right! Thanks!
go with the blazer bumper it will still look oem but clean and tight. i have one on my s10
slam the crew cab and nice daily ext cab.
Was that laptop wallpaper monsters, a fist and drywall. Lol
Sure was LOL
Kyle, Replace The Drum Brakes With A Big Brake Kit If Available.
If I did that, I might as well swap in a different rear end. The weak link is going to be the differential itself, but yes, I'd like to do a disc swap at some point.
Lookd great but for the rear end. They have a ford 9" conversation that is rock solid. Put a Detroit locker in it and it will handle that 350 plus some.
Definitely, I have my eye on a Quick Performance rear end. I got one already for the crew cab.
WIN!!!! S10 hot rod!
Heads up you should really take off the fender flares. The tend to cause rust
The s10 shoots flames lol
Heck yeah it does haha, also has a pretty decent misfire haha
Yeah I agree wholeheartedly to keep a stock-ish bumper. I hate some of the things I've seen on the back of pickups. A nice big "original" chrome bumper looks best IMO
Agreed 100%, the Blazer bumper will be the way to go for my truck.
Nice fireball xD
Looks great
Thanks!
Hahaha, I was setting here saying "Have fun getting that other Leaf Bolt out on the Driver Side" Lol, It's so freaking stupid how they put it in there, Basically you either have to cut it or remove the Fuel Tank 🤦🤦🤦 But can't wait to see ur 350 swap man bc I'm getting ready to do one myself on my Black & Silver 95 S10 ( As soon as I'm done with my 84 Blazer tho )
They install the bolt that way for a reason. So if you get in a T-bone accident, the end of the bolt won't puncture the fuel tank causing a fire.
LOLOLOL, yeah man, that's the truth!! I subscribed and will be keeping an eye on your build, thanks so much!
@@saabkyle04 Thanks man, I appreciate it, Once I'm done with my 84 Blazer I'm going to start tearing my 95 S10 apart to do a 350 swap on it 🤗
You should have a new old stock bumper put on. Also, you should keep the stock rims
I should do a lot of things, but if you find one, let me know, it's just about impossible. Stock wheels are also limiting. I'm getting a new set that looks more fitting of a restomod.
I would like to see the Blazer bumper swap. It sounds very interesting.
That's what I've decided to do, it'll be a neat upgrade
It's better to work on multiple projects from my point of view. No matter how passioned you are of a specific model, after a certain working time or let's imagine you have to wait for some parts, you can get bored or dissapointed. Moving to something else for a little bit and getting back may feel like a refuel of excitement. Good luck Kyle!
Agreed! RUclips is what makes it hard sometimes. People constantly asking for this and that. If it was for personal enjoyment, that'd be a different story LOL. Thanks a lot!
Not one Rebuild project disappoints me
Huh?
@@saabkyle04 what I'm saying is all of your projects are good
I thing you should get a Syclone or a Typhoon
Sounded pretty good
You should swap out the front grille for one off of a 91-93 S10.
I have REALLY thought about that. I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. I'll have to change out core supports, that's the big issue. I'm leaning toward sticking with an OE style grille to keep it period correct. We'll see 👍
Technically the blazer/jimmy bumper should be a bolt on situation since they are the same platform as the s10.
Most definitely swap out the stock diff with a limited slip diff!
Best bang for the buck is an 8.8 out of an explorer 3.73 posi with disc brakes
0:53 you said you had an OEM balancer but your running an ATI balancer. That's so cool.
StabTheDabb Productions Lots of stuff has changed lol
@@saabkyle04 I guess that NOTHING needs to be OEM even an RB25DET and a 240sx Hatchback 😂
Great work. Good job.
Thank you!!
Do you sale the finished products or keep them as toys
I have to finish some first haha. I plan on selling the jimmy at some point, can't keep everything.
@@saabkyle04 cool its dope how you actually break some of this stuff down the way you do
The stock rearend is fine for a stock 350 V8 swap.
I've done alot of SBC and ls s10 and Blazer swaps. If you aren't drag racing it. I'd leave the stock rear end.
I appreciate the insight, thanks!!
I'm currently building a carbureted Vortec 350 for my 94' Sierra Longbed. It currently has the 4.3 with the 4l60 trans. I'm very interested in seeing how that new Edelbrock AVS carb works with the transmission. I really don't want to use the Holley carb on it just for their TPS sensor setup, it's just huge and just pretty ugly.
You should do the blazer bumper swap
That's the way to go for sure
Will a 88modle S10 pick up reAr end work in a 2002. 4wd blazer
Would love to see a custom grille made that resembles the new front on the Silverado. That would be an amazing mod. Along with led conversion for the headlights and tail lights.
That is interesting!
Remember when this channel was popular
Remember when youtube wasn't such a popularity contest? People just made videos for the enjoyment of it. There's plenty of other channels to watch if you don't like mine, have a nice day.
@@saabkyle04 Im not saying the content is not good, im just saying very few views despite over 1 million subscribers. Only critique I ever had with this channel is that the reviews of cars were never actual reviews - not much comparisons, negatives - just general info and walkthrough. Not really "reviews", just a good watch.
Could've fooled anyone with that comment though. My channel is over 11 years old, times change, RUclips changes, an algorithm dictates how everything is. It would take too long to explain everything in comment, but don't take everything as face value. Yeah, I have a lot of subscribers, but it means nothing. It's all about how your videos get pushed to others via the algorithm. Some people play it better than others. I focus more on my content than the numbers and strategy and maybe that hurts me, but I enjoy it more. As far as the car reviews, there's no right way of going about it. My style is/was enjoyed by many. Not everyone has to go things the exact same way. It worked for me and that's all that matters. I'm burned out on car reviews. I'd rather get less views if it means doing something more enjoyable.
is the ratio in the 88 model the same as the 2002 blazer o the S10 pick up is a standard
11:09 what jacks are you using to hoist the truck up?? possible name or where to buy??
nice build so far got a s10 of my own same exact truck red ext cab
Low key wish you’d do something with the old motor too. Hate to see it go to waste
What else would I do with it? I'm going to try and sell it, it needs to be rebuilt.
Nice
Video Idea: Do a review of the 2019 Rolls Royce Cullinan SUV
Would you ever get a 90s Silverado 2500 or 3500 and swapping the 6.5 Diesel with the Duramax?
Doubtful, that's a ways above my skill level haha
