Your truck has a wheel base of 116 inches. If you move the full size truck stuff you have a lot of control over wheel base. If you use the S10 you have to choose between shortening or lenthening the frame. Making the S10 shorter is pretty easy, so make sure you start with a long one.
If you use the S10 you'll have to build body mounts. You won't have that problem if you move the full size suspension to your truck. The full size stuff will be harder to lower than the S10, so if real low is your desire the S10 makes more sense.
Good luck!
