hi, fellow hot rodders my question is about my 83 s10 v8 project. truck is lowered 4" rear 3" front. i would like to know the best way (in your opinion) to go about tubbing? full/mini, spring relocation, shock mount relocation, are there any kits? your info would be greatly appreciated

Depends! Pick your tire size and go from there. I have P325-50x15 Hoosier Quicktime DOT's on my '96 S-10 and they fit fine with the right backspacing. Mine's not lowered though...

nice ride, i like the turbo 6. what is the back spacing on your wheels and how wide?

I'm running a Ranger 8.8" axle narrowed by cutting one side down (centers the pinion) and using a second axle from the short side. That said, my rims are 15 x 10 with 5.5" backspacing. The best way to be sure is make a cardboard template of the wheel and tire you want to use, and mock it up.
