I am gone to swap frames with s10 and put a 5.3 chevy engine and auto transmission in it.I am wondering about wiring will it match the s10 ? should I get automatic s10? I have herd guys using steering colums and brake pedalsand wiring harness.Is there problems with 1994-2004 steering colums orshould i go with 1983-1993.the other question is about the newerbrake pedal harder to fit because of cast frames. sorry for all the question just want to get right year and first build to. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2010 Posts: 28 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Oct 2010 Posts: 28 | sparky

I myself went down that path however the whole cooling system vs steering and the fundamental first law of physics pushed me back to a stock frame with my crossmember kit on it for my '53. In fact I traded a rolling S-10 frame with custom isolator mounts for the cab for a stock '53 3/4t frame without axles
Sparkysmile, there is not much different between the 1982 and 2002 frames on an S10. you will need to rewire everything - old truck, s-10 frame with LS based motor. your best bet is a new wiring harness to start with.
