It appears that you have your mind made up, and don't want to be cconfused with facts. Butchering up a perfectly good frame and suspension for some mythical "advantage" doesn't make good nonsense, when well-engineered S-10 frames are plentiful and the conversion parts to mount the old sheet metal on the newer frame are also available at a reasonable cost. With that setup you get the advantage of using a properly engineered steering and suspension system, backed up by the General Motors research and development department, not some off-the-wall adaptation of a suspension and steering system from a subcompact car. The S-10 rear suspension works as well, and it's designed to be compatible with what's up front. Sounds like a no-brainer to me!
