If a s10 rear end is supposed to be a direct fit into a Luv, it would seem if 9" rear end is narrowed to fit a s10 stock frame should work great. Yes?

I think I may be able to lay my hands on one of these...But no sense buying it if it will have to be narrowed anyway.

If its stock width, its going to be a little wide, your tires will stick out.Other than that it will fit fine.

Rims from a later or a different model with a different offset will fix that.



Im thinking 8"+ wide. :wink:

My luv has a stock width Camaro 10 bolt rearend with Late model Camaro Wheels, they sit a little outside the fenders. Not too bad. I guess A different offset might be the way to go. My current engine is alright with the 10 bolt. I may as well just keep it that way
