My dad put a 95 together with the S&W Backhalf kit we did it all and was very simple.

i dont have a truck yet, i like the extended cab stepside, my friend builds rail cars so he will put the backhalf, cage & ect. in it for me. i have been looking around for trucks already done or partially done. this will be a race truck only. i will be racing it at charleston (coles county dragway) most of the time. anyone have something like this let me know. im ready to buy. thanks, brian

Good choice... i found a already back halfed s10 was pretty cheap.4500..rolling. i like S10's
It has an Alston back half ... works well now.. of coarse there were many things i changed ..but it ran go as i bought it. Al
Not a big dollar setup ijust did new moroso springs and QA1 front coil conversion shocks up front..Stock A arms.. with travel limiters
Im running a alston ladder bar rear.. with double adjustable vari- shocks.
i was running a 14.5 32 tire but that was too much.. i changed to a 13.5x 31.5 hoosier tubeless.
Anyway good luck enjoy
