Well over the days I've been thinking and looking around. Also my buddy let me drive his slammed mini truck, and I decided i want to go slammed. So now I'm looking to fix the 94 Civic up and squeeze everything thats worth out of her. Then I'm on the hunt for a rounded style s10, nissan hardbody, or maaaaaybe a mazada b2k series, Still thinking on it. Maybe I'll just find myself a older style truck, put either the hydro's or airbag. and think on a f20c engine and tranny swap :D

And you thought the general tech and maintenance forum might be the best place to mention this?
 
crap. i was wondering why i couldnt find my post in the member lounge. -_-
could a move be in order?

Actually you can get a smooth ride out of hydro's. you need accumulators in the lines though. I was looking at a Nissan Hardbody today. A guy claims to have one down in miami, 94, 5 spd, extended cab. all he wants is about 200 - 300 for it. so.. im thinking on it... being i m going to be most likely pulling the body off the chasis. do a 1 or 1.5 inch body drop. Modify the chasis. do the suspension required in order to do a frame slam. C notch's, four link rear setup. and someone was telling me what's required for the front but i cant remember. selling the civic or course. started sanding the body and getting it prepped for new paint. i want to try to get the most i can when i sell it so it can be a fund raiser for my new up coming project.

I moved the thread for you, its not for the members lounge, but goes in the other vehicle discussions.
 
only a 1-1.5" body drop? do a 3" body drop. lay that sucker out. if you have to order stuff, id get stuff from suicidedoors.com. best damn place to buy stuff IMHO as well as just about every other minitrucker out there :)
 
Yeah, 3" body drop, C notched frame, spindles, airbags, CAMBER KIT FOR THE FRONT END, lay that biatch down!
 
hell you could always do a stock floor body drop....ie using 2"x3" 1/4" wall box tubing and build your own frame. that way you could incorporate the notch into the new frame without cutting your stock frame up and welding a notch in. just a thought :)
 
mini trucks are gay buy a big ass diesel and lay in out on the frame no you need to decide in a truck then go from there ive been contiplating hacking up my 95 s-10 as i wantto do some thing ihavet been doing for the last 8years ive allready got a LS2 to put in it :)
 
If you ghetto up your S10, I will personally drive to Anderson and put a bullet in each of your tires...
 
Thanks for the tip bodydroppednikes, Im looking for the nissan hard body. mainly because it has the ka24de in it. Im not looking for a massive amount of power to come out of to truck. but if i wanted to bolt up some addon's I know aftermarket parts are there for that engine. My buddy is looking for a mazda b2k series. Only because he likes the body, and if gas prices shoot up to 10.00 dollars a gallon. he could swap a diesel engine in and do the whole grease gas kit or something.

Aren't the mazda b series trucks the same thing as the ford ranger? Tell your buddy to buy BDN's ranger...
 
yes mazda and ford are the same he could do a diesel swap in the ford also but the b series trusks have a little bit diffrent body lines the finders are flaired a little more and some other small things
 
well from like 95+ i believe was when the Mazda B-series and Ford Rangers shared the same platform. same trucks really, just a few differences really:

- front end (headlights, grille..etc)
- bed/tailgate
- tail lights
- fenders
- badging

other than that stuff (might be a few more differences) but in essence it is a Ford Ranger....
