    Ok so I am currently driving a 4wd 99 s10 and the body is kinda rusting to shit on it but the frame is still good. I heard about a company that makes a kit to put a tri five chevy truck body on an s10 frame and was wondering if anyone knows the name of the company or a good website to go to. Thanks.

    did you find a kit or are you fabricating brackets yourself? Got any good pics of the mounts?

    im doing it my own way, i used what was the rad supports for the front mounts, as for the rear , the holes wound up being right onthe edge of the frame. so i cut a 2x2 hole thu the side of the at the top of the reail and welded in a 2x2 piece of square tubing so i can acess the nut and bolt. reason for the 4x frame cuz of track wideth and is was free. idid a 9" step cut to shorten it up to the correct wheelbase. original mount on left need to be cut off yet but the one onthe right is my front cab mount
