I got most of the truck planned but am still confused on what to do for the rear. The motor Im building is goin to have around 450hp and Im not sure of what to do for teh back suspension. I really want to narrow the rear and tub it out but im not too sure now. Also were can I get a narrowed 9\" already done up. I might upgrade later to a more power full motor. This truck is just going to be a weekend truck and track truck. Please give me some ideas and websites to get items. Thanks

Chassis Engineering? or someone at one time made a basically \"bolt in\" kit to pro-street an S-10. Came w/framerails, tubs, and some other stuff I can\'t remember. Check \"chassis shops\" in a search engine and see what you get. Sorry I can\'t help more, it\'s been a while since I saw the ad for that setup.

S&W makes an S10 back half kit. I made my own. But it\'s similar to the S&W kit.

S&W race cars they have a catalog you can order they make chassis kits,rear frame kits, direct fit frame rails that follow the original floor pan so minimul to no cutting is envolved nice

I have a guy near me that narrows ford 9\" housings and builds cages and 4 links. I had to ask around for a while before I found this guy. I basically had to find someone that had it done somewhere.

If you go to the nearest race track and hang out in the pits and ask some questions local parts =no shipping$ Also it is much easier to check out the reliability/quality of a local welding or frame shop should you need those services.
