We tear into a ’95 Chevy S-10 we’re naming the Low-Fi S-10 project. The rear suspension is our focus, however we also take a look at the front suspension, plus send it out to an expert who will create and install a custom audio system and interior. We wrap up the project with work on the driveshaft, exhaust, shocks and more. The final touches are added to our ’95 Chevy S-10 Mini Truck project before we hit the open road and see our LOW-Fi lay frame for the first time.

Y'all just quietly had Haley Williams on the show like that's just a normal, everyday thing… Holy crap.
I still have a 86 square body 2.5L manual. I want to make it a SS sleeper awd with race suspension 4 wheel disk stereo system
Also when he said that hose was soft i knew right away that engine was used to running HOT maybe not over heating but definitely hot
Mini and smaller sport trucks kick ASS especially since we never got Utes..
What kind of mirrors are those?

35:42 got some big bull balls , hadn't noticed he was packing down there , good for him
I think an AWD from a 4X4 conversion would be nice. Lowered, but not slammed. And more of a sport/track truck. With a manual would be fun.
Dang should have painted the rear end
Chevrolet S10 del 96 lo mejor saludos desde costa rica…
Early 2000s. Try mini trucking since late 80s early 90s
Didn't like the toy trucks .
Seriously wish we could’ve seen some sparks. Overall proper mini truck build for sure
IMO Older trucks slammed with them old designs and how clean of a space to work with while, newer trucks lifted with more power and tech
This video is why I want to put one together ❤

1995 Chevrolet S10 Aka The Mini Truck
4:28 Get Low – Lil Jon
6:04 Cruising with Some New Friends
I didn't read through all the comments, but mini truck customizing was really taking off in the late '70's and mid 1980's.
They were sufer/skater mobiles getting guys to the beaches and skate parks.
I was a part of that scene.
Mazda/Ford Courier, Isuzu/Chevy Luv and of course, Datsun and Toyo's were the chosen.
Rangers and S10's were too new for most kids to afford then.
I had a 1980 Ford Courier with a 10B rotary.
Tons of guys "bed danced" their beds with speakers built in.
Good times!
Purple Rain! 🫡 ☝🏾R.I.P. my friend! 🫶🏾
So glad to see a slight resurgence in the mini truck scene 💯 I used to have a 95' Splash Ranger which was lowered, custom paint and dropped a 5.0 V8 in it 🤙🏼 mini truckin' is so fun! ❤️
I always wanted to drop a square body ranger
Y'all want a rescue. I got 92 Sonoma. Love it. Square body. Love it. Dumb eyelashes. 😆
I have ss10 white in Brazil rare car
The thing about after building a Minitruck are the of offers from guys that to use to have a minitruck back in their day, like with my 3" dropped 2001 Sonoma SLS that I bought stock in 2001, I've had a dozen offers to buy mine.
S10 comes with leaf spring under axle . Come on guys full size needs flip kit. Mini trucks are just blocks till u need air or hydro.
More please

Great Job with the Audio Joey.
1984 GMC S-15 4X4 GYPSY PACKAGE INTERIOR. I ordered and got it in Nov. 1983. Over 500,000.00 miles on it. Same 5 speed tranny. Replaced engine in 1992. Racing blew up original 2.8L. Limited slip rear end. Still very strong and doesn't smoke. Oil changes regularly make the difference. I'm the original owner.
name music PLEASEEEE 1:42:00 PLEASE )))
The way he pulled the front spring out! Wow! I'm tackling a stuck spring now where the control arm is fully extended and the inside compressor is tapped out. Wow! Thanks for showing me where to place the pry bar.
I love people like Joey.
Big, small, Short and tall. I like them all!
Yea bruh. Its not lowered 😒
Amazing job that's what I called skills to build something
SPL baby
Most states require the frame to be welded and looks better.
Love to see them do Superduty with. 6.7 and make one mean machine
I just changed all the same things on my 1996 S10
wow! at time stamp 17:55 iwatched him install the theromostat ON TOP OF THE GASKET! lmao
Is it for sale???
@yeahbuddygarage another one for you to rebuild correctly
I was not expecting to see Hayley Williams at the end.
