"Hi" from Washington

[journeyman]

My name is Chris. I live in Washington State in between Seattle & Tacoma.
I have a 91 S-10 2wd std cab w/ a sbc 350, 5-speed, Ford 8" rear end

I'm currently in the final assembly stage of designing, fabbing and installing a Satchell Link 4-bar/coil over rear suspension. Here's a pic of the mock up:

Since this pic was taken, I've painted, plumbed and am now installing the bed, which is a 4" raised one-off bed floor.

I hope to have this beast on the road VERY soon.
I normally post on the Pro-touring S10 site, and find this forum to be geared more towards my preferences as well.

hello and welcome to the sight

[journeyman]

Thanks everyone.
I'm all about the tech!!!!! I have learned lots, but still have SO MUCH to learn. Lately I've been really putting a lot of thought into rear suspension geometry for 3-4 links and performance handling. I'm a shop foreman at a metal fabrication shop. 20+ years experience. Construction industry... not automotive. I'll try to contribute whenever I can.
I have pics of my entire rear suspension build, spreadsheets, specs, calculators etc.... I'd be happy to share my discoveries / anyone interested in the subject.

Please do...

Why don't you go to your photo album and upload the pics...
Then make a post in the projects section..
I am very interested..

Mike
