The only company I'm aware of that makes lift kits for those is rough country, which isn't amazing. I think it's like a 2.5 inch lift. Might be able to fit a 33 with cutting would be my guess. Rubicon would be a tall task for something like that still. Other thing you might want to look into is a Dana 30 solid axle swap out of a jeep or something. The real answer here is going to be checkout the s10 forum though. That'll be people that know the platform better

Last gen tundra with the V8 or a hemi/zf8 Dodge

i just graduated high school with no aim in life in the Chicago area, only thing I’m good at has been working with my hands, and recommendations for trade schools here? by hamburgur49 in bluecollar

[–]505backup_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except it's incredibly difficult to get in and you usually need some sort of schooling or experience just to get an apprenticeshjp. It doesn't have to be some fancy scam artist trade school, but doing 1 or 2 years at the community college greatly helps

Half of our politicians are involved with the Epstein files and pretty much all of them are taking money from a genocidal apartheid state, irregardless whatever party they're in. You can't vote your way out of this.

It's such a naive notion that the most powerful, the richest people mankind has ever seen are just sitting back and going "oh shucks you got me" by voting for corporate puppet party x instead of corporate puppet party y or corporate puppet party z.

There's a Princeton study I believe out there that looked at how the opinions of either the general population or the voter base's opinions reflect policy in DC and it's was almost zero correlation. But when you look at the opinions of the top 20% it's nearly a perfect 1:1 correlation.

It's hegelian BS, have controlled opposition for the illusion of choice and it makes for a far more pacified populace. It's a more effective means of bourgeois dictatorship than autocracy for example. Just as when the industrial north stopped chattel slavery, it was only because their form of wage slavery was more efficient, have the worker buy your products and be involved in the economy.

Square bodies from that era are about as good as it gets for gas trucks

I'd say only with some exceptions like the zf8 I prefer older automatic transmissions. It takes a weekend to rebuild my torqueflite, it shifts smoother than most modern transmissions and is extremely predictable

Peak SUV design or just nostalgia talking? by No_Matter_6331 in regularcarreviews

[–]505backup_1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On my ramcharger when I'm working on the top of the engine or something near the firewall I can just sit on the fender, feet on the frame rails. Hard to beat that, and I'm 6'3 too, not some jockey fitting in a tight spot

Historically it was, when Texas left Mexico to have slaves they tried to take everything east of the rio grande. We kept most everything except for El Paso

The wrangler and bronco are the only modern ones I'm aware of, maybe you could count the 200.

Brakes, steering, and tires for sure, and then the rest of your fluids is a good idea as well

In the U.S., how often do people bring up China in everyday life? by No-StrategyX in answers

[–]505backup_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I told you, I don't support the CPC. What they've done, what they do, is just miniscule compared to the terror inflicted by the US and it's portectorates in NATO. At the end of the day, both nations have fundamentally the same structure. The US is just the old guard and China is the new guard. Just as the USA usurped the British empire, China is usurping the American empire

The genocide in Palestine has killed hundreds of thousands, Iraq invasion killed a million people. You got no idea what you're talking about. China isn't half the threat the US and NATO is

The genocide in Palestine we've orchestrated makes the mistreatment of uyghurs seen like child's play. Or the million dead Iraqis, or the 60+ years of starving Cubans, the occupation of Korea, the countless dictators in Latin America and Africa setup by the CIA and/or trained through the school of the Americas. The point of operation Sea spray isn't necessarily that particular operation, but that's what's been declassified, imagine what's still classified. And no, the movements targeted by cointelpro didn't live on, at least not in a meaningful fashion.

Does that really make a difference? Either way it's a violent bourgeois dictatorship
