I've never owned an S-10 or any other mini-truck, so I won't get into that
part of this.

Mark you risked some hot responses recently when you suggested using a
Toyota.  Have you done this, or seen a truck anyone else has done?  I can't
imagine using Toyota myself, but my reasoning is emotional, not logical.

If I remember right your own truck has Camaro IFS and rear axle.  What
suspension are you using at the rear?  Stock, mono-leaf from the Camaro, or
something else?
