Yota SAS on S-10

[8Snaces]

So..i had a first gen for a while and stupidly got rid of it. I have decided to make a new crawler. My 99 S-10 ext cab 4.3 vortec, auto into a rock crawler.   I will be swapping out both the rear axle and the IFS and putting 1st gen axles underneath. I will also we pulling the driveshafts and the trans and replacing them with a toy 5spd,stock t-case and driveshatfts. I just picked up the rear axle today and the 4 rock krawler rims that im gonna run. So... i will keep u guys posted. If anyone has any other ideas...i would be happy to hear em!

If that is an NP231 tranfercase?  If it is you should be able to put a 4:1 low range in it, and you could stuff a Klune-v 4:1 or 2.5:1 in it as well. Just my

Thanx for the input. I will be running a single stock tcase for now and see if everything works. Then i will upgrade to the dual t's. I painted the rims today... Flat black! The bead locks are gonna be CAT Yellow and the exo will be CAT Yellow as well.

But the front output is on the driverside right, so that wouldn't work since he is going to put in a Toy front axle.

Well.. there has been a little change in plans. I found a first gen runner that is gutted and has roll damage. I think that im gonna hold off on the S-10 for the moment so that i still have a daily driver and start on a TRUGGY!! I hope to pick up the runner tmw.
