There is someone on s10forum.com that has a kit and they are taking pre-orders right now for it.  It will only work on the 1st gens though.  Here is a link for you -- http://www.s10forum.com/forum/f134/now-taking-pre-orders-sas-kit-372287/

i was thinking of buying a aftermarket dana 60 for it. i think dynatec makes one but not positive.

thanks ive been to diversified many times actually. seems like im there almost every week. brad knows me quite well unfortunitly foe my wallet. there making a kit but its using the dana 44 out of the tj and doesnt provide me with quite the amount of lift i want. i want to be able to run 38.5s boggers. i know they make a set of cut out flares for the newer style s10s but i wanted to run a gen1 blazer (4door) so i can wheel with my family. ill try those other links you guys sent me thanks. does "wildtime" have a web site or anything showing some of the work hes done?

thanks for everyones help and if anyone was any more ideas they are much appreciated!!!

The link that I posted and the one that ChevyRacer1981 posted will get you the same thing.  3LeafFab is the shop on S-10forum.com that is making the kit.  I think right now, the pre-order price is about $1,000 and you have to supply the axles.

there are a couple company's that make custom 60's but your talking a lot of $$$$$$ Currie is one of them they have what is called the rockjock it's a badazz axle and I think they will build it however you want it here's a link http://www.currieenterprises.com/cestore/cjrockjock.aspx
