Some did and some didn't. You have to use Dakota digitals little proprietary control box. But ultimately you have to add their water temp sensor and maybe one or two more. It wasn't bad.
This was a customer's car and it took about 9 months. It could go faster but he wanted to keep the 4.3 and 4l60 and i wanted to keep the factory wiring harness and steering column for reliability. If you went with a 350/th350 it'd be much quicker.
The s10 is too narrow front and back. You need to use spacers on all the wheels depending on your backspacing. You could also switch to a 4wd rear end which may eliminate the back wheel spacers.
Nicely done & 53 looks to have good "metal"!
Kudos from a '53 5 window daily driver for pulling it off & putting it on.
What year s10 did you use?
Did the Dakota Gauges mate with the S10 wiring harness?

Was it a direct bolt on or did you have to cut s10 frame
If you get the correct single cab long bed chassis you do not need to section the frame.
Nice work man!! Where's the burnout video in the finished truck?
How long did it take you to build?

@@buildsnburnouts6046 @ do u need spacers? At all wheels?? Is it too narrow the s10??

@@buildsnburnouts6046 @ agree,, i dnt lije too narrow, looks like a lowrider,,,😩😩 What’s the other option??
Looks like the wheelbase is too short as well as too narrow
