Hello,
So as you may know I have a parts truck for my current build that I would like to turn into some sort of a hot/rat rod. I have been bouncing around a s10 frame swap and keeping the original frame and running gear.
My main question is; how do I change the bolt patern on the front axle to accept a modern rim bolt pattern? also, how difficult is it to install disc brakes upfront?
I like the idea of running the orginal frame, I don't really want to put some ifs clip on it, I would rather just run an s10 frame if I wanted to run ifs. Can anyone give me some ideas on what it takes to update the original frame to more modern standards. I would just assume I need disc brakes at highway speeds.
Any help is appreiciated,
Thank you,
Paul
